The Pooja will be performed in different batches according to Rahu Ketu pooja timings at mandapams and halls. There are separate entry and exit doors in the temple. Once the Pooja is complete, the worshippers can leave for Lord Shiva’s darshan inside the temple.
Everyone is allowed in the pooja hall to purchase an Rs.300 ticket. The priest will be giving directions on how to perform the Pooja in three different languages Telugu, Tamil, and English. There are speakers for each person to make the Pooja procedure audible in the temple.
If anyone doesn’t understand the process, they can assist temple staff standing nearby. Pooja will compete in 20-25 minutes. After completing Pooja, you have to carry silver idols and place them in hundi inside the temple.
