Pictures and videos of a Ganesh idol, dressed in all-white kurta pyjama as Pushpa Raj, have been shared by fans on social media. Don't miss the signature Pushpa pose of the idol.

The Pushpa-inspired Ganesh idols have created a lot of buzz on social media with users chipping in with interesting comments.

Referring to the "main jhukega nahi (I won't bow down)" dialogue from the film, a user commented on a similar post by news agency ANI, saying that in reality Pushpa will have to bow before Lord Ganesh.

But reality is pushpa ko ganpati ke samne jhukna padega...... ????????????

Not just Pushpa, Lord Ganesh's idols this year were also inspired by a particular scene from SS Rajamouli-directed RRR.  

Insane Craze of @AlwaysRamCharan 🙏

RamCharan's character from RRR has dominated this year's Ganesh chaturdhi with lot of Alluri idols 🙌#HappyGaneshChaturthi #ManOfMassesRamCharan pic.twitter.com/MmBSQxQdzT
