Ganesh Chaturthi with KHOYA: Celebrate with Sweet Traditions in Dubai
What is Ganesh Chaturthi and Why is it Celebrated?
Ganesh Chaturthi, also known as Vinayaka Chaturthi, is a vibrant Hindu festival honouring Lord Ganesha — the remover of obstacles and the harbinger of wisdom, prosperity, and good fortune. The celebration marks the birth of the elephant-headed deity, who is beloved across India and beyond. Traditionally, it falls in the month of Bhadrapada (August–September) and lasts 10 days, filling homes and temples with chants, colours, and delicious offerings.
How is Ganesh Chaturthi Celebrated?
Families welcome beautifully crafted idols of Lord Ganesha into their homes or community spaces, decorate the altar with flowers and lights, and offer prayers. Each day is filled with devotional songs (bhajans), traditional rituals, and the sharing of sweets with loved ones. On the final day, the idol is immersed in water (Visarjan) to symbolise the cycle of creation and renewal.
Why Modak and Motichoor Ladoo Are Extra Special
In Hindu mythology, Lord Ganesha is famously fond of sweets — especially Modak and Motichoor Ladoo. Modaks, with their delicate dumpling shape, are filled with coconut and jaggery, representing sweetness and abundance. Motichoor Ladoos, made from tiny pearls of golden gram flour fried in ghee and soaked in syrup, are equally beloved. Offering these sweets is not just tradition — it’s a joyful way to honour Ganesha’s favourites.
