    Mumbai: Morris Garages announced the launch of its new campaign #OurEverydayVignaharta on Ganesh Chaturthi to celebrate the relentless and tirelessly efforts and hard work of our unsung, real, and everyday heroes and to recognize the crucial role played by our traffic police in clearing traffic-related obstacles for us.

    Under the campaign, MG created a series of images in a video highlighting our traffic police. These visuals captured them in various scenarios, such as working bravely in heavy rain, navigating through chaotic traffic, and moments of joy captured through their smiles.

    To infuse an emotional and festive touch, the video is set to the rhythmic beats of dhol tasha, the traditional drum and cymbal music that resonates with the spirited chant of Ganesh Chaturthi.

    Understanding the logistical constraints and recognizing the practical challenges of collaborating with the traffic police directly, the brand has harnessed the power of AI to convey its heartfelt message.

    In the hustle and bustle of our daily lives, we often turn to Lord Ganpati, the Vignaharta, the remover of obstacles. However, it is often our police force that consistently assists us in overcoming obstacles, especially on the roads.

    As we eagerly welcome Lord Ganpati with grand festivities, our traffic police remain on the front lines, diligently managing crowds, ensuring smooth traffic flow, and maintaining security and ensuring our journey is smooth and safe, no matter the obstacles.

    This Ganesh Chaturthi, let us celebrate who makes our festivities even more special.

    Sapana Carpet-Mats unveils Mangalvarsha Abhushan for Ganesh Chaturthi

    Mumbai: Sapana Carpet-Mats, India’s leading brand in the arena of mats manufacturing and export, has unveiled its ‘Mangalvarsha Abhushan Collection’ of mats, rugs, doormats, and pooja mats for the upcoming Ganesh Chaturthi and festive season. The curated collection of colourful, high-quality mats and rugs would add vibrance and festive vibes to every home, serving functional and symbolic purposes.

    Ganesh Chaturthi is not just a festival. It is also a time when there is a perceptible change in the air, and temperatures start becoming more pleasant in most parts of the country. This is where the addition of mats, rugs, and carpets can make homes look cosy. They offer warmth underfoot and make the festive gatherings of family and friends more comfortable.

    As an Indian brand, Sapana Carpet-Mats understands this festive spirit and has created this collection with diverse tastes in mind. For instance, the vibrant asana mats in pink and blue can be used to sit guests near the pooja area. There are round mats that can be used under round tables and add a touch of cosiness to the interiors.

    Similarly, the vibrant Portland doormat might make your guests stop longer at the door and admire your décor sense. The Mashael runner can be used in kitchens, balconies, or hallways. Sapana Mats has even integrated the iconic Turkish carpet vibes by including Marrakesh Mats in the collection.

    Sapana Carpet-Mats managing director Nishith Gupta, said, “Each mat in our festive collection carries a story, tradition, belief, or style statement that makes it a must-have for Ganpati celebrations and festive season tapestry in all homes. We focused on hand-picking select mat designs for various functional and aesthetic needs. The mats are adorned with intricate designs, and our pooja mats exude auspiciousness, setting the sacred stage for prayers and rituals. Similarly, the doormats, runners, and living room mats are opulent in appearance but rightly priced to ensure great impressions during the Ganpati season and beyond.”

    In a rapidly changing society, it is the meaningful elements of traditional Indian home décor that help us remain connected with our cultural roots. Sapana’s mats, rugs, doormats, runners, or pooja mats are not just décor items but aesthetic threads that weave together the joy of festivities and the spirit of love and care throughout the season.

    Nishith said, “We make millions of mats every year, but we never ignore our commitment to social well-being and environmental protection. Sapana Mats is manufactured using solar energy to ensure no harmful emissions are added to the environment during production. In fact, to date, we have saved more than 30 thousand trees through our focus on sustainable manufacturing.”
