On this day, devotees pay their respects to Lord Shiva by adhering to fasting and staying up at night to chant prayers and devotional songs. Temples are thronged with devotees, who offer puja to the Shivlingam and take bath at the holy river of Ganga early morning to purify themselves. In some parts of the country, dance forms like tandava and lasya are performed as they are believed to be the cosmic dance forms of Lord Shiva, after which the world was created.
