Every year, after celebrating the Hindu deity Ganesh’s birth and performing the corresponding ritual, devotees perform Ganesh visarjan, or immersion of the idol. Here’s a look at how celebrities followed tradition – while keeping it COVID-19 precaution friendly. ‘Super 30’ actor Hrithik Roshan and his family (above) undertook an environment-friendly family-only approach. Former couple, now friends Hrithik and Sussanne, and their kids - Hrehaan and Hridhaan – along with filmmaker Rakesh Roshan, Hrithik’s sister, Sunaina, and another family members were present.
