India is preparing to celebrate Ganesh Chaturthi, one of the most vibrant and festive festivals. This year, the festivities will begin on August 27 and culminate with the visarjan (immersion ceremony) on Anant Chaturdashi, September 6. The festival is widely observed in Maharashtra, Delhi, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, and even many other locations abroad.
But before the festival starts, a cute video has already gone viral on the internet.
AI-Generated ‘Mushaks’ Get Ready for Ganpati Festival
A creative video posted on Instagram by a visual storyteller depicts animated mice also called ‘mushaks’, Lord Ganesha’s sacred mount, preparing for Ganesh Chaturthi. The AI-generated video depicts the mice waking up, looking at the date on their calendar, and making preparations for the day of celebration.
Watch:
They are spotted holding flags, plucking flowers, grating coconut, and preparing modaks (Lord Ganesha’s favorite dessert). They also paint and dress Lord Ganesha’s idol, light diyas, and run the chariot on the road with glee.
The video also carries a touching message:

Another person commented, “Now this is what AI was created for.”
One of the viewers also commented, “What can be prettier, more thoughtful and the most wonderful thing than this?”, with other people merely saying that it was “Cute.”
