Mumbai celebrations

Holi celebration! This elephant and his mahut were there to touch for blessings (remember the god Ganapati or Ganesh with the elephant head? All elephants are revered as well. This one was painted for the celebration and he took fruits that people offered.
Same elephant. I tried to get close but he was JUST TOO BIG
Prayers before the ear piercing. Arnaav on the left (nephew) Minal, Ruchika, Kimaya and another cousin Anushka.
Aji (father's mother that is the grandmother) giving blessings.
