==Ganpati celebrations==<br />
Because Tilak Nagar has a major [[Hindu]] population consisting of Maharashtrians and south Indians, many religious programmes are held there regularly, with additional audience from the nearby areas of [[Chembur]] and from other parts of the city. Tilak Nagar is famous for Ganpati decorations of its pandals. It also has a substantial Christian population with the Infant Jesus Chapel near the station. <ref name="Rajan's Ganpati show-of-strength diminishes">{{cite news|title=Rajan's Ganpati show-of-strength diminishes|url=http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2003-08-23/mumbai/27196477_1_ganesh-pandals-ashok-satardekar-sahyadri-krida-mandal|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120922084024/http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2003-08-23/mumbai/27196477_1_ganesh-pandals-ashok-satardekar-sahyadri-krida-mandal|url-status=dead|archive-date=22 September 2012|accessdate=21 August 2011|newspaper=[[The Times of India]]|date=23 August 2003}}</ref><br />
