Actress Shilpa Shetty shared a snapshot of Kanjak Puja on Instagram.
Ram Navami 2023: Having Kanjak Pujan on a large scale is a distant dream. Instead, we will prepare bhog at home and celebrate the day staying at home.
According to beliefs, Goddess Durga slaughtered Mahishasura on this day; hence she is worshipped as Mahisasuramardini on the occasion of Maha Navami.
Tradition dictates that nine young girls, who have not attained puberty yet, are invited to homes, worshipped and offered kanya bhoj.
