Waranagal urban collector Kata Amrapali Idol with Ganesh...............
There were times when Ganesh festival was celebrated in the private confines of the royal families back in the era of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj. Then came Lokmanya Tilak, who initiated the idea of public celebration of Ganesh festival to bring unity among people. Pune and Mumbai became the origin for these celebrations.

Pune city is considered as the cultural capital of the state and Ganesh Utsav in Pune is one of the most revered festivals that is celebrated with great gusto in the city. The preparations and decorations start way before the festival begins. The enthusiasm in people can be seen as they flood the markets buying idols, modaks and puja items. Among many celebrated Ganesh pandals in Pune, the five 'Manache Ganpati' are considered highly auspicious, which was also conceptualized by Lokmanya Tilak.
