The song "Deva Shree Ganesha," featured in the 2012 film Agneepath, is a devotional anthem dedicated to Lord Ganesha. Composed by the popular duo Ajay-Atul and sung by Ajay Gogavale, the track has become a staple during Ganesh Chaturthi celebrations. The film, starring Hrithik Roshan, Priyanka Chopra, and Sanjay Dutt, was a box office hit, grossing over ₹193 crore. It was a remake of the 1990 Amitabh Bachchan classic of the same name.
Ganesh Chaturthi, a major Hindu festival, celebrates the birth of Lord Ganesha, who is revered as the god of wisdom, prosperity, and good fortune. The festivities conclude with Ganesh Visarjan, a ritual in which devotees immerse clay idols of Ganesha in water, symbolising his return to the celestial realm. The festival, marked by grand processions and family gatherings, fosters unity and spiritual renewal in communities across India.
