Last year: Vinayaka Chavithi 2026 – Monday 14 September 2026
Vinayaka Chavithi, Bhadrapada Sukla Chavithi, is the birthday of Ganesha and the biggest street festival of the Telugu states: clay idols are installed at home and in pandals with 21 kinds of leaves (patri), undrallu and kudumulu are offered, and the vratam story of the moon's curse is read so that one may look at the moon without blame. The puja time is madhyahna (midday), and the date is the day the chavithi tithi covers midday. Immersions follow on the 3rd, 5th, 7th, 9th and 11th days, the main one at Hussain Sagar on Anantha Chaturdashi.
