Testimonials :-
"I have been Observing Santoshi Maa fast for last 32
years and I have been visiting the Santoshi Maa temple at Ghatkopar for last 30
years. I do Udhyapans regularly here.... It serves a double purpose....
Udhyapan is one thing and feeding of the poor is the second one, All the
beneficiaries of the "Feeding" are children from the Poor families.
Apart from this the temple do feed the poor and needy on every Friday evening.
Navratri is also celebrated with great pomp and splendor in
the temple. For me the temple is my second home. I thank Jeetu Maharaj for
running the temple with so much bhakti. Jai Santoshi Maa.... -Rohini
