When Krishna Janmashtami Falls
Bhadrapada Krishna Ashtami, with the puja at nishita kaal — midnight.
The Gregorian date moves each year with the panchanga. Message us and we will confirm this year's date and the muhurat converted to your local time — before you commit to anything.
Why Families Abroad Book This One
The midnight IST timing is awkward from the US but convenient for the Gulf, Singapore and Australia. Families that cannot join book the abhishekam anyway and watch the recording the next morning — the naivedya of butter, aval and seedai is prepared and offered in India either way.
What the Pandit Performs
The full sequence, whether or not you are on the call. Anything your family tradition adds or omits, tell us and we follow yours.
