Ganeshotsav
Naad is a guide to Maharashtra’s Dhol-Tasha culture, not only a daily calendar. Use this page when you want the festival itself — Pathaks, neighbourhoods, and how the ten days feel on the street.
Where to experience Dhol-Tasha
In Pune, Laxmi Road, Tulshibaug, Mandai, Sadashiv Peth and Deccan are the classic listening streets. In Mumbai, Dadar, Girgaon and Lalbaug carry the same charge. Typical evenings run from dusk into the night; Chaturthi and Visarjan are the loudest days.

Aagman and Visarjan
Aagman is arrival — the first processions after sthapana. Visarjan is farewell, when Pathaks walk the idol to the water. Exact clocks change every year; follow Pathaks you care about and treat listed times as the best public information we have.
Pathaks
70 Pathaks on Naad. Start with a neighbourhood, then follow the groups whose sound you want to hear next.
