Television actress Surbhi Chandna on 25 September 2026 bid an emotional farewell to Lord Ganesha, sharing heartfelt glimpses from her Ganpati visarjan ceremony across social media. The actress, known for her roles in Naagin, Qubool Hai, and Ishqbaaaz, documented the entire celebration — from the Modak bhog rituals to the final visarjan — through a carousel of photos and videos on Instagram.

The Farewell Post

Sharing the series of images, Surbhi penned an emotional note in her own words: 'Bappa Modak Bhog Visarjan Celebrations Visits everything Gannu Pa Comes to an end today Tu Chala Jayegaaa Aaj And back to waiting for Next year celebrations already Mumbai will miss you Bappaaa.' The post reflected the bittersweet mood that marks the conclusion of Ganesh Chaturthi festivities each year. She noted she was already looking forward to welcoming Bappa again next year.

What the Celebrations Looked Like

The carousel of pictures shows Surbhi dressed in a traditional orange outfit, posing for the camera amid festive décor. Some frames capture her performing the visarjan puja, while others feature candid, joyful moments from the day. The posts drew warm responses from fans and fellow industry members across the platform.

A Last-Minute Gas Leak Scare

In an earlier Instagram post, Surbhi had recounted a tense episode that nearly derailed the bhog preparations. Just as her family was about to serve the offering to 'Ganu Bappa' and their guests, the gas hob abruptly stopped working — and a gas leak was subsequently discovered.

Describing the incident as 'truly miraculous,' Surbhi wrote: 'First time in 3 years something truly miraculous happened just before we were about to serve the bhog to Ganu Bappa — Our gas hob suddenly stopped working, and there was even a gas leak. For a moment, it seemed impossible to prepare and serve the bhog to bappa and our guests in time.'

She added that the family rallied together to fix the situation in time: 'But somehow, everything fell into place. Our family came together, we managed to fix the situation, and by Bappa's grace, we were able to serve the bhog on time. Perhaps this is exactly why He is called Vighnaharta — the remover of obstacles, our protector and our saviour. What seemed like a moment of panic turned into a beautiful reminder that when Bappa is with you, no obstacle is too big. Ganpati Bappa Morya.'

Ganesh Chaturthi and Mumbai's Emotional Connect

Ganesh Chaturthi is among Mumbai's most beloved annual festivals, with the visarjan procession on the final day drawing enormous public participation across the city. For many Mumbaikars — including members of the film and television fraternity — the immersion ceremony carries deep personal significance, marking both a spiritual conclusion and an expression of collective devotion. This year's celebration concluded on 25 September, with the city's streets witnessing visarjan processions through the day and into the night.

Surbhi Chandna's warm documentation of her family's celebration — obstacles included — resonated widely online, capturing the spirit of a festival that blends faith, family, and community in equal measure.
