Interestingly, the trend is reversed in Telangana, where people are ordering customised Ganesh idols from Mumbai-based artists for pandals in Hyderabad. Nikheel Parse, a private employee, told Deccan Chronicle, “Ganesh idols from Mumbai are based on a concept. Customers for Goshamahal Ganesh idols come from Gujarat, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Chennai and other parts of Tamil Nadu, as these places lack artists who make huge Ganesh idols. We have Ganesh idols priced from `85,000 to over `1 lakh. Akash Singh, one of the artists, said that since some states have strict restrictions on PoP, customers are approaching artists in Goshamahal for PoP idols.
