The Navi Mumbai Cha Raja, the oldest and most prestigious Ganeshotsav in Navi Mumbai, is hosted by Shiv Chhaya Mitra Mandal. This year’s celebration will celebrate the event’s 54th year, and it will begin on Saturday, September 7. The festival is being held at Sector 21, Turbhe’s CIDCO Ground. The theme for this year provides a magnificent look into the crowning of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj in history.

The 54th Ganeshotsav festival is expected to be a spectacular show that blends social consciousness with traditional revelry. An amazing model measuring 80 feet long by 40 feet broad by 25 feet tall, which depicts the crowning of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj at Raigad Fort in 1674, is the main attraction of this year’s celebration.

This is complemented by a 10-foot-tall idol of Lord Ganesha kept inside a beautifully crafted mandap.

The Mandal president, Ankush Vaiti, expressed enthusiasm for this year’s topic. “We expect our 54th Ganeshotsav to be a feast for the eyes and the soul. Alongside the enormous idol of Lord Ganesha, the magnificent depiction of Shivaji Maharaj’s coronation is guaranteed to draw sizable visitors and offer an enlightening experience,” he stated.

Amol Pashte of Chembur, Mumbai, created the coronation show, and Kunal Dingankar sculpted the Lord Ganesha sculpture. This year’s festival, dubbed Navi Mumbai-cha Raja with fondness, will highlight modern societal challenges in addition to traditional celebrations.

Maintaining its legacy of promoting social responsibility, Shiv Chhaya Mitra Mandal is highlighting the significance of hygiene and cutting back on single-use plastics. Informative posters will be used in awareness efforts, and cloth bags will be given out to supporters to promote eco-friendly behavior.

Along with a host of other activities, the ten-day celebration will include an Ayurvedic health camp, speeches, devotional music, free meals, and religious ceremonies like Satyanarayan Puja and the Atharvashirsh reading. More attractions that promise to provide guests with a lively and interesting experience include many rides, games, restaurants, and novelty stalls.

The Shiv Chhaya Mitra Mandal promises a spectacular celebration for everyone as the festival progresses by upholding its tradition by fusing historical grandeur with a dedication to social development.
