Utsavams - Hanumath Jayanthi Celebrations

This is the most significant Utsavam of the Temple. This Utsavam goes on for a period of 15-17 days during which "Laksharchana"for Lord Anjaneya is performed. Japam, Homam and Abishekam as prescribed in the scriptures are performed.

On the cultural side, a music festival in honour of Anjaneya is held. Over fifty concerts rendered by renowned musicians in Indian Classical music (Carnatic and Hindustani) add charm to the celebrations.

Similar to the Sahithya Academy Award, Sri Maruthi Baktha Samajam Trust has instituted a prestigious award with a purse, citation and medal called the "Hanumath Gana Siromani" award. This award was instituted two years ago and a novel process of selection of the awardee is done by seeking the very choice of Anjaneya himself.

Hanumath Jayanthi normally falls between Dec 15-Jan 14.
