Madhushravani

It is customary that the brides wear the clothes and jewelry given by the in-laws. All the materials of the Madhushravani Puja arrive from in-laws one day before the Puja starts. Every evening, women try to please Lord Shiva by singing Aarti, Suhag Geet and Kohbar. The women eat arava food once a day. The women offer milk and lava to the Nag Devta in the morning and evening. On the last day of the festival, the brides undergo a difficult test. The hands and feet of brides are cauterized with a cotton Temi by placing betel leaves on it and burning the Temi. ==Gallery==
