Hop on the Bappa Express

Ganesha Chaturthi is the Hindu festival held on the birthday of the lord Ganesha. It is celebrated widely in maharashtra. During this festival people pray Lord Ganesha with great devotion. It is ten days festival. In this occasion people keep Ganesha’s clay idol privately in homes, or publicly in big pandals.  Chanting of folk songs and Aarti (daily twice - morning & evening) is the best part of this festival. Indian festival are always best as they are full of colours and sweets. Modak is the Ganesha's favourite mithai.


This year on the occasion of Ganesh Chaturthi 2019 Hindustan Times has made me part of their unique initiative of bringing Bappa Aarti to you in the Mumbai local trains. Their Mandlis of Bappa Morya chantes melodies which freshen up the people travelling back home. Mandlis distributed cute booklet of various types of Aarti to the passengers.  Mandlis created vibes of positive spiritual and devotional songs on the auspicious occasion of #GaneshChaturthi. People easily connected with them and started chanting and enjoying the melodies.

I joined them on 6th September, 2019 on my way back home from Chatrapati Shivaji Terminals to Ghatkopar. What an awesome experience!! Just loved to chant the folk songs and Ganesha Aarti. Joining all the passengers in this unique initiative, made me and all of us as part of the family and homely.
