Mahashivratri is an auspicious festival that’s observed with a lot of fanfare and enthusiasm. This year, it has fallen on February 18, a Saturday. Mahashivratri Puja, in contrast to many other festivals, is performed at night. Devotees consume satvik foods like ragi, sabudana, fruits, and some vegetables while keeping the fast. Some also follow the austere ‘nirjala’ vrat. It is believed that those people who perform puja, fast, and offer prayers to Lord Shiva are blessed with good luck.
