Kartik Aaryan Shares Adorable Moment with Pet Katori Missing Ganpati After Visarjan
Mumbai is buzzing with the spirit of Ganesh Chaturthi, but as the festival wraps up, the goodbye to Bappa leaves everyone feeling a bit empty. Bollywood star Kartik Aaryan knows this feeling all too well, and his cute dog Katori stole the show by showing just how much he misses Ganpati Bappa after the visarjan ceremony.
Just a day after bidding farewell to their beloved Ganpati idol, Kartik shared a heartwarming Instagram video that has fans going "aww." In the clip, Katori sits sadly in the spot where Bappa’s idol stood moments ago. Kartik, ever the doting pet dad, asks his furry friend, "Katori kya hua? Ganpati chale gaye?" Katori turns around with those big, innocent eyes, looking totally heartbroken. To add some emotional touch, Kartik paired the video with the iconic title track from Karan Johar’s "Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham."
The day before, on Saturday, Kartik and Katori celebrated the final day of Ganesh Chaturthi with a cozy visarjan at home. Kartik treated fans to a series of posts sharing glimpses of the intimate ceremony. One photo captures him whispering a wish into Bappa’s ear before the goodbye. Another shows him performing the aarti with full devotion.
Fans loved the snap of Kartik immersing the Ganpati idol in a drum of water, while Katori joined in by placing his paws together like a true devotee. There’s even a sweet moment where Kartik folds his hands in front of Katori during the rituals. Kartik himself carried the idol to the immersion spot, and he shared a few poses next to the drum afterward.
Wrapping it up, Kartik captioned the post: "Ganpati Bappa Moryaa 🙏❤️… Miss you 😢." It’s clear the actor and his pet share a deep bond with the festival, making this Ganpati Visarjan all the more special.
On the work front, Kartik Aaryan has exciting news too. He recently finished shooting for his upcoming film "Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri," starring alongside Ananya Panday. Fans can’t wait to see what’s next from this rising star!
This Ganesh Chaturthi story from Kartik reminds us why the festival brings so much joy—and a touch of sadness when Bappa leaves. If you’re feeling the post-visarjan blues like Katori, you’re not alone!
