While the nation celebrates Ganesh Chaturthi, 'Ganpati Murtikaars' (idol makers) live a quieter, emotional reality. In a ground report by The CSR Journal, 'Murtikaars' shared, “Each Ganpati is like our child. We smile when they’re taken, but the last one feels like a farewell.” As shops empty, hearts grow heavy, it's a festival of joy, wrapped in silent sorrow.
