Actor Vivek Oberoi is gearing up for Ganapati celebrations at his home. Vivek welcomed idol of Ganesh at his home on Thursday in Mumbai.
Talking about his feelings about Ganapati celebration at his home, he said, “We all are very happy especially my little one Vivaan Veer because he gets very excited when Ganapatiji arrives at our home to eat all modaks during the festival.”
“Now Ganapatiji has arrived in our home. My mother and my wife has started their preparation to make all kind of sweet dishes, modaks and other varieties of food and that is our favorite part. We all have decorated our house with flowers and also made preparation for Aarti. We are following ladies of our house when it comes to planning of these five days.”
Talking about memories of Ganesh Utsav in Mumbai, he said, “Ganesh Utsav is Mumbai’s one of the favorite festival and everyone in Mumbai has beautiful memories attached with this festival. I remember when I was of my son’s age, we used to sit at Juhu beach and used to see Ganesh immersion. In this period, there is atmosphere of excitement and happiness among mumbaikar’s.”
Vivek also talked about bringing eco-friendly Ganapati at home, he said, “From last 11 years, we are bringing eco-friendly Ganesh, I feel it makes lot of difference. When we started that time, people used to say it doesn’t look good but I feel now people are used to that and people have started liking it. It looks really beautiful and very beneficial for environment as well”.
When asked Vivek what he wished from Ganapati this year, he said, “Ganapati has given us so much. I only pray that all should be happy in their own space. Recently, I met Kailash Satyarthi and he told me his life journey and how he struggled his entire life for the upliftment of society so this year I am praying for him. He is going to do Bharat Yatra of 11000 kilometers and I am also joining him in that yatra to create awareness about child abuse and women empowerment. I feel we should support our girls as a society”
