Ganesh Chaturthi 2022: Top Bollywood songs to add to your playlist

Celebrations for the most-awaited Ganesh Chaturthi begin today. The festival of Ganesh Chaturthi is celebrated to mark the birth of Lord Ganesha. It is believed that Lord Ganesha was born on the Chaturthi Tithi of Shukla Paksha in the Bhadrapada month, which according to the Gregorian calendar falls on 31 August this year. In the 10-day long festival, people bring idols of Lord Ganesha into their homes, install them and offer prayers. The idol is then immersed in the rivers after three, five, or 10 days, depending on the devotee. Localities also organise the festival and arrange for big pandals to place bigger idols of Lord Ganesha.

This prominent Hindu festival is celebrated with great pomp and show across the country, but is celebrated with great fervour in the southern states and the state of Maharashtra.
