1 Sep 2022

As 10-day festivities of the Ganesh Chaturthi festival in India have already commenced and if you are thinking to change your way of celebrating the festival, then right away take a cue from Bollywood celebrities who have time and again stressed the importance of not harming the environment during the festive celebration, especially Ganpati Visarjan.Dia MirzaActor Dia Mirza, who is a true advocate of nature, often talked about celebrating Ganesh Chaturthi in an eco-friendly way. In 2019, she brought home an eco-friendly idol and shared the importance of minimalism and sustainability.Sanjay DuttInstead of immersing Ganpati idols in water bodies, one can also opt for Ganpati Visarjan at home using minimal water to give Bappa a nice send-off. Have a look at this picture in which actor Sanjay Dutt is seen giving a cute send-off to Ganpati by immersing the idol in a water container. The particular picture was captured in 2018.Vishal DadlaniThis post of singer-composer Vishal Dadlani will definitely give you a bitter reality check about the aftermath of Ganpati celebrations. He shared pictures in which multiple large Ganesh idols and other puja paraphernalia can be seen discarded at the beach after Ganpati Visarjan. VISHAL DADLANI (@VishalDadlani) September 12, 2018Hrithik RoshanMaking alternative tanks for immersion or similar arrangements at the individual household level is one of the best eco-friendly ways to celebrate Ganesh Chaturthi. When COVID-19 was at its peak, many people including stars like Hrithik Roshan opted for Ganpati Visarjan at home as it's not safe to go out. Thankfully, normality has now returned but for the safety of the environment, it's better to opt for Ganpati visarjan at home than to immerse the idols in water bodies.Rithvik DhanjaniActor Rithvik Dhanjani is completely against the use of Ganpati idols made of Plaster of Paris. Every year, he makes handmade Ganpati idols at his home using mud.View this post on InstagramA post shared by Rithvik D (@rithvik_d)Don't forget to take care of the environment while enjoying the festival. Happy Ganesh Chaturthi.
