Excerpts...

What's special about this year's Ganpati celebration for you?

As a kid, I loved Ganpati processions—the huge idols, the music, and the energy of the festival. Even today, apart from enjoying food and celebrations, I make it a point to do one special thing every year: feed animals. It's my way of celebrating with them too, whether it's cat food or little treats for dogs. My in-laws usually keep Ganpati, but this year I'm bringing Him home as well, and I couldn't be more excited!

Over the years, I've come to truly understand the meaning of festivals. It's not just about food and clothes, but about the bonds we create and the cultural connections we share with friends and family. With prayers in the air, the whole atmosphere feels so pure and pious.
