Ganesh Utsav is that time of the year when every street, every home, and every heart lights up with joy. With chants of Ganpati Bappa Morya echoing across the city, the festival spreads positivity, devotion, and togetherness. This festive spirit is also cherished by Sun Neo’s actors Megha Ray and Akash Jagga , who bring their own warmth and personal traditions to the celebrations.

Megha Ray, who plays the lead role of Divya in Divya Prem: Pyaar Aur Rahasya Ki Kahani, shared her fond memories of the festival. “Growing up in Mumbai, Ganesh Chaturthi has always been a special experience for me. The whole city transforms with so much energy and positivity. At home, we don’t bring an idol, but we all gather in front of the Ganesh murti in our temple and do aarti together as a family. What I enjoy the most is visiting pandals with my friends—it’s such a Mumbai thing, and the fun of roaming around at night, sometimes in that light drizzle, is unmatched. This year, I just hope we get at least a day off from the shoot of my current Sun Neo show so I can continue this tradition and plan my pandal visits.”

On the other hand, Akash Jagga, who plays Kundan in Prathaon Ki Odhe Chunri: Beendani, described how his family brings Bappa home with great devotion. “Ganesh Chaturthi always brings so much positivity into everyone’s life. At my home in Mumbai, we also welcome Bappa with great love. My parents have immense faith in Ganpati Bappa, and they travel all the way from Jaipur to Mumbai just to be part of the celebration. We keep Bappa for one and a half days and do seva with full devotion. This year, I even took two days off from the shoot so I can spend that time serving Bappa and being with my parents. There’s truly a different kind of peace and happiness when you celebrate Ganesh Chaturthi with family—it feels like Bappa blesses the entire home with positivity and love.”

While Divya Prem: Pyaar Aur Rahasya Ki Kahani follows Divya’s mysterious journey filled with love, secrets, and unexpected twists, Prathaon Ki Odhe Chunri: Beendani tells the story of Ghevar, a cheerful girl whose simple life changes after a newborn unexpectedly enters it. But off screen, both Megha and Akash unite in celebrating Ganesh Utsav, a festival that symbolizes faith, togetherness, and new beginnings.
