More than 15 lakh listeners from the twin cities of Hyderabad – Secunderabad, Vijayawada, Vishakapatnam, Tirupati and near by districts like Warangal also tuned into the program. The listeners were invited to ask questions regarding the Ganesh chaturthi celebrations e.g.:
1.    Why we offer red flowers and durva to Ganesha
