As the festival of Ganesh Chaturthi began on Wednesday, August 31, a number of celebrities visited Arpita Khan and Aayush Sharma’s residence in Mumbai for Ganpati Darshan. Every year, Salman Khan would welcome Ganpati Bappa at his residence during the 10-day-long festival of Ganesh Chaturthi. However, for the last few years, Ganesh idols were being installed not at the Galaxy Apartments, but at his baby sister Arpita Khan and her actor-husband Aayush Sharma’s residence. This year too, the couple welcomed Ganpati Bappa into their home and invited all their families and friends from the industry to visit Bappa and seek his blessings. Among those who arrived for the darshan on the first day were Salman and Katrina Kaif with her actor-husband Vicky Kaushal.
