Ganesh Gulli idol was unveiled for a photoshoot ahead of the Ganapati Festival at Lalbaug Sarvajanik Utsav Mandal Mumbaicha Raja, Ganesh Galli, on Tuesday. Ganesha Chaturthi is the Hindu festival that reveres god Ganesha. It is a ten-day festival which starts on the fourth day of Hindu luni-solar calendar month Bhadrapada, which typically falls in the months of August or September of the Gregorian calendar.
It is the tallest Ganapati idol in Mumbai. Although it is unknown when (or how) Ganesha Chaturthi was first observed, the festival has been publicly celebrated in Pune since the era of Shivaji (1630–1680, founder of the Maratha Empire).
