A. Definitely I do have faith on lord Ganesha.
Q. Are you a regular visitor to Siddhivinayak on every Tuesday?
A. Yeah, I do visit Siddhivinayak almost every Tuesday. Whatever I pray heartily, I get it.
Q. Ganapati puja is going to be held soon. Do you worship Ganapati at home?
A. Yes, I do. When I am in my hometown Bhopal, we do bring Lord Ganesha in our home. It's a ritual that we follow every year.
Q. What is your planning about celebrating ganapati puja this year?
A. This year I will go all over Mumbai with my friends to see Ganapatiji.
Q. Have you been attached to Ganapati puja since childhood? / (if someone is from outside Mumbai) How did you find that celebration in Mumbai for the first time?
A. I am not attached to only Ganapatiji, but to all the lords since childhood. In Mumbai, the puja is mind blowing. Especially during the time of Visarjan, it is great. And I really feel like dancing with the worshippers.
Q. Any special memory about ganapati puja?
A. No, nothing special because each year comes with its special and different charm.
Q. What do you say about the pollution and noise, created in Mumbai during ganapati visarjan?
A. For the noise, I think we should really keep a check. I know that during the time of visarjan, we forget all the things and enjoy a lot. But although we are devotees, still we have to think about our atmosphere.
Q. You must know that Ganapati idols will not be immersed in water this year and instead it has to be earthed. What do you think about that?
A. It's really a great decision, but I think all the people will not go with this. So if we will get any solution from Pandits and apply it, then no one will object.
Q. Which is the song, related to Ganesha puja, that you find most close to your heart?
A. Now, there is no particular song which is close to my heart as Ganapati puja is specially celebrated by Maharastrians. But I love to hear Ganapati Bappa morya, mangal murti morya... -Swati Dey
