Guest guest Posted August 30, 2006 Report Share Posted August 30, 2006 *The Rs 5 crore Ganpati * This is Mumbai's costliest Ganpati. The Gowda Saraswat Brahmin Seva Mandal's Ganpati at King's Circle in central Mumbai is adorned with a 175 kg silver throne. The head-rest and ornaments of the idol is made up of 60 kgs of gold. The jewellery comes from voluntary donations from devotees. No wonder then that the idol is insured for Rs 5 crore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
