It`s almost time to welcome Lord Ganesha for the year, but what’s a Ganpati aagman without some naach gana? The first day of the Ganpati festivities is marked by serpentine processions on roads, with devotees dancing zealously to eclectic tunes, courtesy banjo and dhol groups.
There are a handful of songs that rent the air during the 11-day celebrations and are expected to play during the aagman as well. "Deva Shree Ganesha (Agneepath; 2011) has topped the list for years. Jab hum log ye gaana bajaate hain, log jhoom ke dance karte hain (When we play this song, devotees dance their hearts out)," says Shailesh Batwal of Mangalmurti Banjo Group from Nerul. "Our group has been playing at the Ganpati festival for close to a decade. The songs have changed over the years, but Mungada Mungada and Bholi Surat Dil Ke Khote have remained all-time favourites," he adds.
