Cure my son of the gutkha addiction.
I want my husband to start paying attention to me and forget his extra-marital affair.I need your help but people in Bihar need you the most today...so help them and then help me...

These are just some of the requests that devotees have made in writing to Lalbaugcha Raja. Besides money and ornaments, organisers of the popular Ganpati mandal at Lalbaug are increasingly coming across letters in the donation boxes. Most devotees have either sought a good job or a good husband but there are many unusual requests from people who seem to have lost all hope in the material world and whose only hope is Lalbaugcha Raja.

One of the most moving letters is by a Maharashtrian woman. Written in English, it says, "Today lakhs of people in Bihar are suffering. May Lord Ganesh help them in all their difficulties. More than me, people in Bihar need Lord Ganesh's help." She prays that the Lord help them just the way he had helped a cancer-stricken child for whom she had prayed earlier.
