The roads in central areas (Peth) of Pune city were thronged by Ganesha devotees on Sunday due to the public weekly holiday and the fifth day of Ganesha immersion.

The steady beat of dhol-Tasha, organized by the mandals’ live performances on social and spiritual topics, and Ganesha devotees from outside the village added to the excitement of the festival. Since it was a public holiday, citizens started thronging the main city from 11 am. The mandals also continued playing music and organized various programs throughout the day. The fifth-day immersion procession of Lord Ganesha became a special attraction.

Ganeshotsav became more colorful with the setting sun. In the evening, all the mandals opened the dramas organized for the devotees.

While the feet of the youth were swaying to the rhythm of the steady music and the DJ, the scenes oozing with heroism attracted the attention of many. Chhatrapati Shivaji Road and Bajirao Peshwa Road saw heavy crowds. From those selling vada-pav on the roadsides to the shopkeepers selling idols of Ganpati, the festival took on the form of a fair.

To avoid traffic congestion, special parking was arranged at five places by the police. Due to this, traffic due to four-wheelers was reduced, but the two-wheelers made it difficult for pedestrians to walk. In many places, activists of mandals and drum teams were blocking the way for Ganesha devotees.

Despite the India-Pakistan cricket match and light rain, the enthusiasm of the devotees for Ganeshotsav remained unwavering.

Mumbai, 12th September 2018:  Fevicol A+, a specialized adhesive brand for crafting from the house of Pidilite, supported artist Bhagyashree Deshpande in the attempt to etch her name in the prestigious Limca Book of Records by creating the largest paper-quilling Ganesh idol at the High Street Phoenix premises in Mumbai.

Unveiled today, in the build-up to the Ganesh Chaturthi at High Street Phoenix in Lower Parel, the idol stands five feet and two inches tall. Made from 40,000 paper strips glued together with 50 bottles of Fevicol A+ of 85 gms each had been largely completed beforehand by Deshpande and had 50 students from schools across Mumbai come together for applying the finishing touches today.

Fevicol A+ proved to be ideally suited to the creation of Deshpande’s work of art. A newly-launched adhesive from Pidilite Industries, Fevicol A+ works on multiple surfaces like cardboard, felt, foam and other solid craft materials. Moreover, its special formulation ensures a no-spill and hassle-free experience which makes it ideal for crafting.

Bhagyashree Deshpande said, “Making an entry into the Limca Book of Records is never easy and with the support of Fevicol A+, I am attempting to achieve the esteemed record. Fevicol A+ played an essential role in helping me create this idol as its superior adhesive properties meant I was able to work with not just paper, but also accessories with ease and speed. As a result, I got more time for the actual crafting. Paper quilling is an art the requires an immense amount of patience but using Fevicol A+ just made the whole process from start to finish so much easier.”

Mr. Shantanu Bhanja, CEO, Consumer Products, Pidilite Industries Ltd said, “At Pidilite Industries, we are committed to unleashing creativity through art and craft. Creativity is more akin to a learned skill than an innate quality. On this auspicious occasion of Ganesh Chaturthi, we aimed at giving the future generation of budding artists a platform to explore their creative side through the paper-quilling Ganesha Idol activity. At the same time, we also aimed at educating the children and spread awareness about sustainability and eco-friendly products which is the need of the hour.”

Mr. Rajendra Kalkar, President (West), The Phoenix Mills Ltd said, “We are truly excited to be associated with Fevicol A+ and Bhayashree Deshpande, who are fostering sustainable art through this initiative at our premises.
