Bollywood’s favorite pair Riteish Deshmukh and Genelia D’Souza, along with their children, joined the Khan family for Ganesh darshan at Arpita Khan Sharma’s Mumbai residence on the festive day of Ganesh Chaturthi. The family event, organized by Arpita and Aayush Sharma every year, featured the Khan family members such as Salman Khan, Salim Khan, Salma Khan, Sohail Khan, Arbaaz Khan, Alvira Agnihotri, Atul Agnihotri, Alizeh Agnihotri, and some other close friends.

Deshmukh Family’s Festive Spirit
Genelia gave fans a glimpse into the festivities by sharing a cozy family picture on her Instagram story. Posing in front of a flower background in traditional attire, the Deshmukh family radiated celebratory mood. She also loved Arpita’s grand bash, adding, “Every year you outdo yourself!!! Ganesh Darshan was absolutely beautiful, Arpita Khan Sharma.” Riteish re-posted the image with the caption, “Family Forever.”

Performing the Ganesh Aarti
The celebrations included the Ganesh devotional aarti, recorded on camera uploaded by Salman Khan. The video began with the beautifully decorated Ganpati idol laden with flowers and lights, followed by the family ceremonies. Salim and Salma Khan led the prayers, followed by Salman in a plain black t-shirt and beige trousers. The entire Khan family participated, while Riteish, Genelia, and their children were seen taking part in the traditional aarti.

A Creative Home Celebration
Ganesh Chaturthi this year was all the more special for Genelia and Riteish because their kids Riaan and Rahyl created “robotic modaks.” Sharing the unique creation on social media, the couple expressed pride at the imagination of their children when they wrote, “Ganpati Bappa Morya! This Ganesh Chaturthi, our home is filled with love, laughter, and the unlimited creativity of Riaan & Rahyl!”

Ganesh Chaturthi, which was held this year on August 27, will find a culmination in Ganesh Visarjan on September 6.
