Daily aarti schedule
Frequently asked questions
Which aarti is best for first-time pilgrims at Nashik?
Plan to attend at least one major aarti — Kakad (early morning) or the evening Dhoop / Shej is most pilgrims' first choice. Arrive 30–45 minutes early to find a seat.
Do I need to book aarti tickets in advance?
Standard aarti seating is open to anyone in the queue — no booking required. VIP darshan slots, when offered, are usually purchased same-day at the temple counter.
What time should I arrive for the morning Kakad aarti?
The Kakad / awakening aarti starts before sunrise (typical timing 4:00–4:30 AM). Plan to arrive at least 45–60 minutes before the start. Carry a torch — the temple lanes have minimal lighting at that hour.
Are mobile phones allowed inside?
Most aartis prohibit mobile phones — large temple complexes provide phone lockers near the entry. Carry minimal cash and ID; leave photography for the outer courtyard.
Is there a separate queue for senior citizens?
Yes. Senior-citizen and divyang (specially-abled) queues exist at every major Indian temple — Nashik included. Look for the dedicated counter near the gate; you'll need an ID showing age (60+ qualifies).
