    Captioned: "Ganpati Bappa Morya! May Ganeshji remove all your obstacles, and fill your year with laughter, positivity and success. Happy Ganesh Chaturthi", the image did not go down well with several users, who claimed the actress is Muslim and should stick to Islam.

     

    A user wrote on the comment section: "Why don't you change your name from Sara to Sara(swati) or something and then worship all the gods..."

     

    "I though you are Muslim," another taunted.

     

    "Please accept Hinduism," said another.
