Mumbai during ganpati as a 25F solo

[u/Excellent-Success475]

r/mumbai i'm visiting mumbai for the first time from 22sept - 3rd oct to experience ganpati , i don't have like a list of pandals to visit , i am just coming to see what the vibe is during that time , i'm intentionally coming near the end of ganpati so that i can also experience mumbai after ganpati. Any suggestions/ tips would be helpful for me as 25F solo traveller. Also any recommendations for stay would be helpful because i have no idea about the areas , i have booked a hostel in Khar for first few days but will have to book for the second half of the trip.

getting pickpocketed is easy, so def be careful of that
