Why it matters
Large-scale religious festivals are significant cultural and economic drivers in Indian cities, often involving community-led artistic projects.
Visakhapatnam-based SV Entertainments has announced that it will install a specially designed Maha Ganapathi idol adorned with one crore bangles, under the theme ‘Sri Divya Kankana Alankara Maha Ganapathi,’ for the Vinayaka Chavithi celebrations beginning on September 14. The idol will be erected at Sri Nagar in Gajuwaka.
Mr. Ganesh from the SV Entertainments said that the concept symbolises devotion, prosperity and the blessings of Lord Ganesha. The idol, decorated entirely with colourful bangles, is expected to become one of the major attractions of this year’s festival in the city.
