The idol of Lalbaugcha Raja - the iconic Lord Ganesh idol in Mumbai - was immersed into the Arabian Sea off the Girgaon beach in south Mumbai on Wednesday morning, as thousands of devotees made a beeline to catch the last glimpse of the deity during the final stretch of the Ganesh Chaturthi celebrations. Anant Ambani, son of billionaire Mukesh Ambani, was among those who bid farewell to Lalbaugcha Raja as the idol was being immersed into the sea.

The procession of “Lalbaugcha Raja” Ganesh, which like every year drew lakhs of devotees during the 11-day festival, started on Tuesday night as it made its way to the Girgaon “chowpatty” beach. Anant Ambani had visited the famous pandal on Tuesday night as well.
