Bollywood superstar Salman Khan brought energy and nostalgia to an eco-friendly Ganpati celebration in Mumbai, as he entertained the audience to a special dance performance to his hit song ‘Jalwa’. The event, which emphasised sustainability and environmental consciousness, was further highlighted by a grand reunion that had fans buzzing with excitement.
On Wednesday, the actor was seen arriving at the special event in the city and encouraged Mumbaikars to celebrate the festival of Ganesh Chaturthi in an eco-friendly manner.The superstar joined hands with Divjay Foundation along with Municipal Corporation of Mumbai, Mumbai Police and Chattra Sansad for the initiative “Bacche Bole Morya” to advocate the need of cleanliness and eco-friendly Ganesh Chaturthi festival this season.

“Eco-friendly Ganesha has been coming to our house for a very long time. Until there is a purity in the festival, you can’t celebrate (the festival)… After the visarjan, some idols’ head, trunk, leg are scattered everywhere and some people step on other scattered idols of Lord Ganesha. It’s not nice,” Salman Khan told reporters here on the red carpet.
The event was also attended by Salman’s sister Alvira Agnihotri, Amruta Fadnavis, Sonali Bendre, Sonu Nigam, Kailash Kher, Police Commissioner Vivek Phalsankar and BMC commissioner Bhushan Gagrani.
During the cultural and musical program, Salman put his best foot forward and got groovy to the tunes of his hit song. Videos doing the rounds online, saw the star nail his hook step as the crowds cheered him on.

Addressing the BMC School students, Salman shared the message of cleanliness with music and dance. “We have been getting eco-friendly Ganesha for a long time because (during and post visarjan) there are law and order and cleanliness issues…. Paper, plastic cups and bottles are thrown around and they are cleaned by BMC workers the next day.
“It’s not good. It’s better if everyone uses eco-friendly Ganesha idols. There are people who behave well in other countries like America, Switzerland, Dubai but throw garbage here in our country. Children can teach elders to keep up with the cleanliness,” said Khan.

At the event, Salman, accompanied by his sister Alvira, and Sonali Bendre were spotted greeting each other warmly. The duo, who played the iconic roles of Prem and Preeti in the film, shared a hug, and were later seen seated together, sparking a wave of nostalgia.

The reunion brought back fond memories of Hum Saath – Saath Hain, with many fans expressing their joy at seeing the on-screen couple together after so many years. As soon as the images and videos of their reunion surfaced online, fans couldn’t contain their excitement. Social media was abuzz with comments reminiscing about the popular family drama.
