Actress Krystle D’Souza recently visited Mumbai’s iconic Lalbaugcha Raja for the first time, describing the experience as deeply special and wholesome.
The Ek Hazaron Mein Meri Behna Hai actress shared glimpses of her visit on Instagram and reflected on what prompted her to seek blessings at the popular Ganpati pandal after years of living in Mumbai.
“He’s been here every year of my life. I’ve lived in this city all my life, and yet, until yesterday, I had never felt the need to go,” Krystle wrote.
She said she woke up with an unexplained feeling that she needed to visit Lalbaugcha Raja and eventually made the trip with her friends.
“I woke up with this unexplainable feeling that I just had to be there. And somehow, I made it happen for me and for my friends. What followed was one of the most wholesome experiences,” she added.
Reflecting on the spiritual significance of the visit, Krystle said she believes devotees do not decide when they go to Bappa, but that Bappa chooses when to call them.
“Maybe that’s how it works. You don’t choose when you go to him. He chooses when to call you,” she said.
In the video shared by the actress, she can be seen carrying a pooja thali with a coconut while seeking Bappa’s blessings. She also bows down and touches her head to his feet during her prayers.
Krystle later captured moments from the visit, including pictures with her friends and actor Rithvik Dhanjani. She opted for an elegant green suit paired with matching earrings for the occasion.
On the work front, Krystle recently emerged as the winner of the second season of the reality show The Traitors India, alongside fellow Traitor Rida Tharana. Hosted by Karan Johar, the season concluded with its finale on September 3, 2026.
