Bollywood and Ganesha have a very strong bond. The God of Wisdom shows up a lot in the movies and is invited to celebs' homes during 10-days long Ganesh Festival.
Riteish Deshmukh is no exception. This year picking up the Eco Ganesha theme, Lai Bhaari actor took it upon himself to make a Ganesh Idol to worship on Ganesh Chaturthi.
As an architect and interior designer, Deshmukh is skilled in the art of pottery. With the help of wife and co-star of his debut movie Tujhe Meri Kasam, Genelia D'Souza, the actor shot a video showcasing his skill and the process of making a Ganesh idol at home in the US.
Deshmukh's skill hands made a colourful yet simple to the core idol which now doubles up as a planting pot. He dedicated the idol to farmers of India.
