All Hindu women observe this festival worshiping and propitiating Savitri as a Devi. On this day, in the early morning the women take purificatory bath and wear new clothes, new bangles and apply vermilion on the fore-head. On Savitri brata 9 types of fruits and 9 types of flower are offered to the Goddess Savitri. Wet pulses, rice, mango, jack fruit, palm fruit, kendu, banana and several other fruits are offered as Bhoga (offering) and observe the festival with Savitri barta katha. After observing fasting for the whole day the fasting women simply take the Bhoga. In the afternoon when all formalities of worship are over they bow low to their respective husbands and elderly people.
