Mumbai [India], Aug 27 (ANI): With eco-friendly Ganpati idols making a trend, a Ganapati idol made of snow has emerged as a major attraction in Mumbai during the Ganeshotsava celebration.

A theme based entertainment space, Snow World has a different idea to contribute for the cause of Eco friendly Ganesha by making a Ganpati idol of snow.

They are organising this different kind of Ganeshotsava since last five years.

Snow World Manager Paramjeet Singh said that they celebrate each and every festivity in a very unique way and this snow Ganesha is also different.

It is just to contribute to the spirit of Mumbai in addition to giving them a feel of Switzerland or Kashmir, added Paramjeet .

Sculptor of the snow idol Sushant Dandwate said that it is a cent percent Snow Ganesha in which 300 kilograms snow is used. It took 15 days for him and his team to make this idol, he added.

Ganeshotsav is a much celebrated event in Mumbai and Maharashtra and since past few years there is much focus on eco friendly Ganpati idol during ten-day festivities.

People are supporting the cause of eco friendly Ganesha idols made of soil instead of one made of plaster of paris and also opting for degradable elements for the decoration of their idols. (ANI)
