The Ganeshotsav 2025 celebrations in Mumbai commenced with great enthusiasm, drawing large crowds to the iconic Lalbaugcha Raja pandal. Among the devotees were Bollywood actresses Jacqueline Fernandez and Avneet Kaur, who visited the pandal to offer prayers on the first day of the festival.

Jacqueline Fernandez was seen dressed in a traditional pink and green lehenga, with her head respectfully covered by a dupatta. Videos and photos circulating online captured her entering the pandal amidst security. Avneet Kaur was also spotted with Jacqueline in some of the clips shared on social media.

However, according to reports, both actresses faced difficulties while exiting the Lalbaugcha Raja pandal after seeking blessings. The large crowds made it challenging for them to navigate their way out.

Lalbaugcha Raja is one of Mumbai's most famous Ganpati pandals, attracting millions of devotees every year. Celebrities, business people, politicians, and other public figures are among those who visit to pay their respects. This year, singer Rahul Vaidya is set to make history as the first singer to perform at the pandal during Ganesh Chaturthi.

Jacqueline Fernandez also welcomed Lord Ganesha home for the first time this year. She shared a video on social media of herself performing aarti at home, expressing her hopes for a new beginning filled with blessings, love, and light.
