The pooja was good but started 15 minutes late.
Reply from the temple: We apologise for the delay. Festival crowds held up the previous seva.

The recorded video was clear. Would love a slightly longer clip of the final aarti next time.
Reply from the temple: Thank you for the suggestion. We have asked our team to include the full aarti.
