A unique Lord Ganesha idol plated with 24-karat gold and studded with 3,83,800 American diamonds has been unveiled at Begum Bazaar in Hyderabad. Crafted from brass and Panchadhatu, the idol features intricate designs inspired by Lalbaugcha Raja, along with representations of the Dashavataram, Balaji, Saraswati and Lakshmi. Eight workers spent eight months creating the idol, with each stone hand-fitted. The makers have also urged media outlets not to spread unverified claims about its alleged multi-crore value.
