00:00First of all, Happy Ganesh Chaturthi.
00:07These 11 days are full of positivity. How do you feel about these days?
00:12Well, I feel very good. There is a lot of positivity.
00:16The first thing is that we don't get much time in the year to celebrate together.
00:23This is the time when all our relatives, friends come to our house and get together.
00:30I feel very good.
00:31I feel very good when we share and connect with each other.
00:36Especially for Hinduism, I want to say that Ganesh Chaturthi sends a very good message of peace and equality.
00:47I have seen something very good in Mumbai.
00:50There is no discrimination here.
00:53There is Eid and Hindus go there and worship.
00:57Muslims also go to Ganpati and Visarjan.
01:00I have a lot of Muslims friends who go to Ganpati in my house.
01:02So, I feel very good that Ganesh Chaturthi symbolizes equality in Mumbai.
01:08I am very happy.
01:09Ma'am, Ganpati comes from your house. How does it feel to celebrate Ganesh Chaturthi at home for 11 days?
01:14I feel very good.
01:15A month before Ganesh Chaturthi, I get very excited.
01:19We go shopping.
01:21We see what kind of theme will be there.
01:23How will we get Ganesh Chaturthi?
01:24I start dreaming about it.
01:26So, obviously, it is a very good atmosphere.
01:28And when I have to bring Ganesh Chaturthi,
01:30I start looking at the Pandal three or four days before.
01:34Which one is my Ganesh Chaturthi?
01:35Which one do I have to take?
01:37So, it is a very happy atmosphere.
01:39As Ranveer said, these things are presented to our Slavs.
01:44Obviously, in India, we celebrate festivals.
01:48Before coming to India, we forget our work.
01:51Especially me, being a producer, I tell everyone not to call me for 11 days.
01:56Because I am in the service of Bappa.
01:58And she took 10 hours to select.
02:00More than 10 hours.
02:02So, I went at 8.30 in the evening.
02:06And I met Bappa at 6 o'clock.
02:08But it is my insistence that as long as you connect with him, I will...
02:12And from Malad to all the Pandals, you will go to this Ganesh Chaturthi.
02:17Every year, this happens.
02:19This is my fourth year.
02:20So, every year, Bappa comes to me a lot.
02:22And Bappa is the most beautiful.
02:25And all my friends come to me and say,
02:28Bappa is the most beautiful in your house.
02:31Bappa looks beautiful in every form.
02:34But this happens that we have a personal attachment.
02:37And we keep a child in the house.
02:40We bring Bappa like this.
02:41He should be blessed by us.
02:43But in these 11 days, he becomes a mother.
02:46And I take care of him like my own child.
02:49I tell him that he will eat.
02:50So, whatever I am eating, you eat.
02:53You just said that it took you 10 hours to choose Ganpati ji.
02:57So, which feature did you see?
02:59Because there are many people who recognize by looking at the eyes that this is my Ganpati.
03:03Let me tell you.
03:04I meditate a lot.
03:07I always feel that I feel cry.
03:13I feel goosebumps.
03:15And I know that this energy is connected to me.
03:18So, like this, I...
03:19I have never seen his face or his ears.
03:22Like people see that he has a headache or not.
03:24How do I feel about him?
03:26Or how do I connect with him?
03:27I always bring Bappa to that feeling.
03:30And my friends...
03:31He is my best friend.
03:32He is also with me.
03:33So, he always tells me that this Bappa is good.
03:35This is also good.
03:36We gave him a chance.
03:37I didn't get what I wanted.
03:39So, I feel that this is because of him.
03:42When you connect with him.
03:44I felt this from the first day when I met him.
03:47And when I feel connected, when I get that emotion for him.
03:50Then, this is my Bappa.
03:51I love him.
03:52And she is very spiritual, isn't it?
