What is Chhath Puja?

The four day vrat to Surya Dev and Chhathi Maiya, with arghya to the setting and rising sun from a river ghat, observed with great devotion in Varanasi.

Chhath Puja is among the rituals families in Vadodara book most often, alongside Vastu Puja, Satyanarayan Katha and Lagna (Vivah).

Chhath Puja in Vadodara: Local Traditions

Vadodara, the old Gaekwad capital, is known for its Navratri garba and a cultured, educated middle class around the MS University. Gujarati and Maharashtrian traditions sit side by side here, so both Vastu Puja and Ganesh Chaturthi pujas are in demand.

Vadodara's refineries, industrial estates, railway works and university bring families from UP, Bihar and Rajasthan, and these households look for Hindi speaking Pandits for Satyanarayan Katha, Sundarkand Path and Chhath. Local Gujarati families follow Audichya and other Brahmin traditions, with Pushtimarg devotion common among Vaishnav households.

Chhath Puja vidhi, step by step

  2. 2Kharna. On the second day the vrati fasts through the day and in the evening prepares kheer of jaggery and rice with roti, which is offered and then taken as prasad before the nirjala fast begins.
  3. 3Sankalp and preparation of the daura. The Pandit guides the sankalp in the family's name. Thekua, fruits, sugarcane and other offerings are arranged in bamboo soops and a daura.
  4. 4Sandhya arghya. On the third evening the family goes to the ghat, and the vrati stands in the water to offer arghya to the setting sun with milk and water, while songs of Chhath are sung.
  5. 5Usha arghya and parana. Before dawn on the fourth day the family returns to the ghat for arghya to the rising sun. The vrati then breaks the fast and prasad is shared.

Samagri is not included in the dakshina; it is at an additional cost, agreed after discussion with Pandit ji. There is no payment to enquire.

What is the cost of Chhath Puja in Vadodara?

Chhath Puja in Vadodara starts from about ₹8,100 for one Pandit and around four days, with the pandit present for the arghya as agreed.

Samagri is not included in the dakshina; it is at an additional cost, agreed after discussion with Pandit ji. We share an exact quote on WhatsApp.

Can I get a Hindi speaking Pandit for Chhath Puja in Vadodara?

Yes. Pandits in Vadodara speak Gujarati, Hindi and Marathi. Tell us the language you want the puja explained in and whether you follow North Indian or local vidhi, and we match the Pandit.

Do you send Pandits to Alkapuri, Akota, Manjalpur and Gotri?

Yes. Pandits come to homes across Vadodara, including Alkapuri, Akota, Manjalpur, Gotri, Waghodia Road and Karelibaug, and nearby towns on request. Share your address and we confirm travel.

Will the Pandit bring the samagri for Chhath Puja?

Samagri is not included in the dakshina. The Pandit sends the Chhath Puja samagri list in advance; you can buy it yourself, or Pandit ji can arrange it in Vadodara at an additional cost, agreed after discussion.

Many ghats fill with families during Chhath. Share where you are staying and we will suggest a convenient ghat and the best time to arrive.
