Ganpati celebrations have started and people all over India are welcoming the Lord of good fortune into their homes. Aishwarya Khare who essays the role of Lakshmi in the show Bhagya Lakshmi says that this is her favorite festival and she has been following the tradition for almost a decade now.
Talking about it in an interview, she said, “Ganesh Chaturthi is one of my all-time favorite festivals. It’s been almost 10 years since we have been welcoming Bappa at our home and during the festival, the atmosphere at home is really surreal. I cannot explain the amount of fun that we have. We not only offer our prayers to Bappa but also feast on some delicious food items. I still remember, when I was a kid, I always used to get excited looking at all the grand celebrations happening in Mumbai. That’s when my family decided to get Lord Ganesh home during Ganesh Utsav and though I am not in Bhopal right now, I always try and attend Bappa’s aarti through a video call.”
Ganesh Chaturthi is truly one of the most cherished festivals of our country. The festival reminds us about new beginnings and is also considered an auspicious time to start any new activity.
