The 10-day festival of Ganesh Chaturthi, also known as Vinayaka Chaturthi, commemorates the birth of Lord Ganesha, the god of prosperity and wisdom. It starts on the fourth day (chaturthi) of the Hindu calendar’s sixth month, Bhadrapada.

The idols of Lord Ganesha are set up at the beginning of the celebration on elevated platforms in homes or in beautifully decorated outside tents. Large processions with drumbeats, devotional singing, and dancing carry the idols to nearby waterways at the festival’s end and are submerged there.

Mr Pattnaik frequently posts images of his stunning sand creations that he creates on Puri beach. Recently, he created a big sculpture of Rakhi on the occasion of Rakshabandhan and shared the post on his Twitter. The post attracted thousands of users.
