Journey to Shree Siddhivinayak Ganapati Temple and Back

India is ruled by a strong spiritual inclination that is driven by the number of gurus, religious organization and pilgrimage packages that fill our daily lives. Spiritualism has also taken up a more marketing-driven approach be it through the television channels of – Sanskar and Satsang TV or the network of Aastha channels, present on the Indian set-top box.



2010, Hollywood film ‘Eat, Pray, Love’ showed actress Julia Roberts tread on a spiritual path in India and re-discover herself by finding what she truly wants. The film beautifully shows how spiritualism is no longer a search for an outward entity but is a search within one's soul.


In a media interaction, last year, one of Bollywood’s finest and most loved actors, Amitabh Bachchan, accepted his yearly visit to the famous temple of Siddhivinayak. “I visit the temple every year with family... And because my visits cannot be frequent enough, I have a similar temple right inside my home,” he was quoted.

Several Bollywood singers like Sonu Nigam, Lalit Pandit and Alka Yagnik are strong believers in spiritualism and the power of the ‘Rudraksha’. Bhushan Kumar, the owner of T-Series too, recently was snapped paying a visit to Vaishno Devi, with his wife. It is not uncommon that television’s top-notch producer Ektaa Kapoor also celebrates with a grand pooja before the launch of every new show. She also couples it with a visit to Siddhivinayak with dad Jeetendra.

Mumbaikars flock to see the little orange idol every Tuesday. Crowds are huge, depending on the day, month and festival and devotees stand in queues for hours. It’s been a tradition of the city and if you haven’t visited the temple yet, you’re definitely missing out on one of the city’s most beautiful ‘darshan destinations’.
