The festive spirit of Ganeshotsav has already taken over Mumbai. A day before Ganesh Chaturthi, several Bollywood and television celebrities welcomed Ganpati Bappa into their homes on Sunday. Among them, Sunita Ahuja grabbed the most attention as she brought Bappa home alone and danced enthusiastically to the beats of dhol.

A video of Sunita welcoming Ganpati Bappa has gone viral on social media. What caught everyone's attention was the absence of her husband Govinda and their children. Sunita was seen welcoming Bappa barefoot and dancing to the dhol beats as she brought the idol home.

Since the video surfaced, fans have been wondering why Govinda was not seen accompanying Sunita on the special occasion.

Sunita Had Danced With Govinda During Last Year's Ganpati Celebration

Sunita Ahuja's Ganpati celebration was also in the spotlight last year. At the time, reports about trouble in Sunita and Govinda's relationship and rumours of their divorce were making headlines. However, the couple was seen together during Ganeshotsav.

The two even danced together during Ganpati visarjan. Their appearance together had put a pause to the divorce rumours at the time. This year, therefore, Sunita arriving with Bappa without Govinda has once again caught people's attention.

Sunita Had Filed for Divorce but Later Withdrew the Petition

In December 2025, reports surfaced that Sunita had filed for divorce from Govinda at the Bandra Family Court. She later withdrew the petition.

The couple's relationship has continued to remain a subject of public interest. Govinda's absence from Sunita's Ganpati celebration this year has once again sparked discussion on social media.

Radhika Merchant and Anant Ambani Also Seek Bappa's Blessings

The Ambani family also welcomed Ganpati Bappa with their usual enthusiasm. Radhika Merchant was seen seeking Bappa's blessings while carrying her nephew in her arms. Anant Ambani was also present with her.

Ganeshotsav is celebrated with great enthusiasm by the Ambani family every year, and glimpses from their celebration have once again surfaced on social media.

Shilpa Shetty Performs Ganpati Aarti

Shilpa Shetty was also seen immersed in devotion as she performed Ganpati Bappa's aarti at home. Hansika Motwani and Dhanashree Verma were among the other celebrities who welcomed Bappa into their homes.

Daisy Shah, Deepshikha Nagpal and Arjun Bijlani were also seen celebrating the festival.

Ankita Lokhande Welcomes Bappa Amid Heavy Rain

Ankita Lokhande also joined the Ganeshotsav celebrations. Despite heavy rain, she was seen stepping out of her car under an umbrella. She later welcomed the Ganpati idol and adorned it with a chunri.

Amitabh Bachchan Greets Fans With a Ganpati Touch

As he does every Sunday, Amitabh Bachchan also stepped out of Jalsa to greet his fans. This time, he added a festive touch to his look by wearing a white kurta along with a stole that had 'Ganpati Bappa Morya' written on it.

From Sunita Ahuja's energetic welcome to Radhika Merchant and Anant Ambani's celebrations and Shilpa Shetty and Ankita Lokhande's festive moments, several celebrities have already joined the Ganeshotsav celebrations.
