Within two days of the Ganeshotsav festival, the Lalbaughcha Raja has received an offering of over Rs 36.30 lakh donation. Most attractive among the donated cash is U.S. dollar currency notes donated to the famous Ganpati idol in Mumbai.

Speaking about the donation received, Mangesh Dalvi, treasurer of Lalbaugcha Raja mandal, said, "We have got currencies of various countries but most of them are U.S dollar. While we usually calculate and keep account of the Indian currency cash on a daily basis, the foreign currencies are calculated either on the last day or after the festival."
