Akhil Mandai Mandal
Shukrawar Peth
The market district’s beloved Ganpati — a rare Sharada Gajanan idol of Ganesha seated with Goddess Sharada, worshipped at Mahatma Phule Mandai since 1894.
Pune
Shukrawar Peth is the market heart of the festival — home to Akhil Mandai Mandal and its rare Sharada Gajanan idol, where darshan queues weave between vegetable stalls and the lanes of Mahatma Phule Mandai stay lit late into the night.
Mandals and pathaks in Shukrawar Peth, with visit notes, listed performances, and neighbourhood context for the festival.
Combine Mandai-area mandals with a market walk. Keep bags small through security queues, and follow volunteer marshals when processions cut through the lanes.
See the first-time visit guide and metro & traffic notes.
