Shittiest uni.. shitttiest grading system....shitttiest copy checkers. Got 7.2 in my 1st year. Now I got 7.65 in my second. So even if by mistake they give me 9 in my 3rd year. My overall SGPA would still not be 8. I am doomed. The dream of distinction on my marksheet will forever be a dream now. I was expecting a good result both in my 1st and 2nd Year. I wrote my best. I filled 30+ pages but still.

I think for my 3rd year, I will highlight my answers with so many different colors.

Fuck VU!

How to get the bhasmarti vibhuti? I am visiting next week and have got pass for bhasmarti. But I also want to take some home

Looking for a reliable local tour operator/driver in Ujjain 🙏🔱
I’ll be travelling solo from 27th–31st August and need help with hotel, private car/driver, Bhasma Aarti & darshan guidance, puja, Ujjain temples and an Omkareshwar day trip.
Please share trusted contacts and the approximate cost for a 4N/5D customised package for one person.
Prefer recommendations from people who have personally used them. 🙏
Jai Mahakal 🔱

I am hearing ki there is a sudden stampede break out in mandir happening due to wild crowd? Is it true? Mana ki aaj naag panchmi he and the amt of tourists are crazy...but aaj kuch bhagdad wagera wala scene bhi ho gya kya?

Some of my relatives are concerned about whether they should go or not because of this. If this happened pls confirm.

Bhai kya log aa rahe hai Ujjain me, I know kuch dates hoti hai esi but it's so crazy rn. Log hi log hai and people are ready just for the mattresses, they just want any place to stay. Although we don't do such things, we respect our guests heavily but what I'm seeing is crazy!!! Multi level parking bhari hui hai, hotels, stays full hai. People are sleeping in cars!!

We are getting calls for bookings like every minute and I feel so bad denying people but it's a boom here in Ujjain.

To all my brothers and sisters of Ujjain, agar koi rasta puche to bata dena, koi pyasa ho to pani de dena, parking me help kar dena, afterall hum Baba Mahakal ke bhakto ki sewa hi kar rahe hai 🙏🙏 Inka experience accha banana humari duty hai.

And outsiders, tourist planning to come please pehle se hi apna stay book karlo to ensure better accomodation.

Jai Shree Mahakal 🕉️🙏

Ok so this post is long so be patient while reading it.

15 August 2026(kaal bhairav, ujjain), ye date mai shayad hi kabhi bhulna chahunga, kyuki is din maine kaal bhairav ke darshan ke sath sath shayad ek bahot khoobsurat dost ko paya bhi aur kho bhi dia. 

Asal me hua kuch aisa tha ki hum ujjain me ek din pehle hi pahoche the aur mandir Jane ki hod me humne kaal bhairav ko aakhir me rakha, Google pe 10 baje ka samay dekh kar hum do dost scooty pe kaal bhairav ke darshan karne chal pade kyuki humne suna tha ki ujjain me mahakaal ke darshan se pehle aapko kaal bhairav ke darshan karne chaiye. 9:23 pe jab hum mandir pahoche to dekha ki mandir me pravesh karne wali line band kar di gai hai aur sab sirf dur se hi pravesh dwar ko dekh sakte hai, nirash hoke hum wapis chale gaye, lekin subha 5 baje uth ke ek baar fir prayas karne ke liye hum pahoch gaye kaal bhairav ke aashirvad ke liye.

Wahi uss bheed me hum unse mile, wo do ladkiyan thi jo humari hi tarah line me lagi thi darshan ke liye. 

Kaal bhairav ke darshan karte samay ek khaas baat ye hai ki unhe prasad me sharab ka sevan bhi hota hai, to unki thali me ek choti si bottle dekh ke mere dost ne mujhse ek mazak kia jo unhone bhi suna aur waha se humari baat shuru hui. Mai unke baare me bas ye janta hu ki unme se ek Amazon me kaam karti hai aur dusri medanta/vedanta me aur jiske upar ye kahani hai wo bhi Delhi se hai, hum line me lagte hue bahot baat karne lage. Mai joke karta, aur wo mere joke pe hasti, ek introvert hone ke naate jab bhi mai kisi naye shaks se milta hu, mujhe unke sath comfortable hone me thoda waqt lagta hai, lekin humari vibes ek dusre se kuch iss tarah se mili thi jaise hum ek dusre ko kaafi waqt se jaante ho. Ek confession bhi karna tha mujhe, ki mujhe kaafi time aise mauke mile ki mai waha line se nikal ke aage chale jau jaise sab line cross kar rahe the, magar mai nahi gaya kyuki mujhe unke sath uss waqt accha mehsus ho raha tha. 

Samay aage badhta raha aur hum aur baate karte rahe, unke sath haste hue sach batau to samay ka pata hi nahi laga, warna 2.5 ghanta ek choti si line me lagna kaafi mushkil ho sakta tha. 

Hum bahot der ke baad finally mandir me enter karte hai, aur kaal Bhairav ke darshan ke baad mera dost mere se puchta hai ki hume kis side se exit lena chahiye (right ya left), sach batau to uss waqt maine sirf ye dekha ki wo kis disha se exit le rahi hai aur mai bhi ussi jagah mud gaya. Fir waha se parikrama kari jaha maine umeed kari ki wo mujhe fir dikhegi. 

Ye kaisi khaas baat hai na, jiska mai naam tak nahi jaanta, jidse mai aaj se pehle kabhi mila bhi nahi, usse har kuch der baad bas ek aur baar dekhne ka dil kar raha tha, aisa mere sath shayad pehle kabhi nahi hua tha, mai nahi jaanta tha ye sahi hai ya nahi. Bas uss pal me mai sirf darshan karna chahta tha, kaal bhairav ke aur uss shaks ke jisne shayad mujhe uske baare me sochne par majboor kar dia tha. Hum ek baar aur mile, fir maine aur mere dost ne decide kia ki hume yaha se chalna chahiye kyuki hum late ho rahe the. 

Maine haami bhari aur hum waha se nikal chale, jab hum apne joote chappal lene ke liye wo jagah dhoond rahe the tab maine mahadev se bola ki ek baar aur mujhe unse mila do, aur jaise hi maine peeche mud ke dekha wo bhi waha se aa rahi thi, maine bas ek baar unhe dekha aur mai aage badh chala, chalte chalte wo fir humko mili, waha mai unke peeche firse khada tha, maine kisi dukaan pe asli rudraksha mange ke liye pucha to wo has padi aur boli aur kuch keh ke aage chalti chali. Bas wo aakhri baar tha jab maine usse dekha, usne hume bye bola aur wo jis auto ko book karke aayi thi uss auto ke paas chale gayi, maine bahot koshish kari apne man me usse puchne ki ki kya mujhe uska instagram milega? Par introvert hu isliye muskura ke badle me bye bol kar unse vida le li. 

Maine usse to waha vida le li thi, magar uska khayal, uska khayal mere man se nahi ja raha tha. Baar baar wo kuch ghante jo humne sath me guzare wo mere dimag se nahi ja rahe the, mere dost ne kaha mujhse ki ye travelling ka ek harsh truth hai, ki log aapki life me bas kuch pal ke liye aate hai aur fir bas unke sath bitai yaade hi sath reh jaati hai. 

Par mai usse fir bhi milna chahta tha, mujhe lagta tha ki kuch to tha shayad jo bholenath ne hume ek dusre se achanak milaya, par shayad bhagya me likha banata bhi wohi hai aur mitata bhi wohi hai. 

Aakhir me malal bas iss cheez ka reh jaega ki jis shaks ki ke baare me itna sab kuch likh dia maine uska naam tak nahi jaan paya mai.

Reddit please do your magic.

Hello,

Can anyone share/suggest good stay with clean washroom near the temple ? And the check in timings being early in the morning.

MeeT Up

We are planning a family road trip from Pune to Ujjain, Omkareshwar and Maheshwar in August.
We are planning to leave Pune on 5th Sept and want to attend Mahakal Sawari on 7th Sept (Monday) and hopefully attend Bhasma Aarti on 8th Sept.

We will be travelling by car and would really appreciate suggestions from people who have recently done this route.

A few things I need help with:

1. Best route from Pune and where to take breaks?
2. How should we plan Ujjain → Omkareshwar → Maheshwar?
3. Where is the best place to stay in Ujjain considering Sawari and Bhasma Aarti?
4. What is the practical experience of attending the Sawari? Where should we stand for a good view?
5. For Bhasma Aarti, is advance booking/Tatkal the best option? Any recent experience?
6. Any important things we should know regarding parking, crowds or road closures during Sawari?
7. Good vegetarian food recommendations in Ujjain, Omkareshwar and Maheshwar?

Any recent 2026 experience would be especially helpful.

Thanks in advance!

Hi all, I have thankfully booked the online tickets to bhasma aarti. As mentioned on my ticket I’ve to enter by Mansarovar gate.

I’ve watched a few reels and read online that even after getting the ticket which in itself is a battle, there is still a big fight on different gates, places to sit and more.

Can anyone help me by explaining what exactly is the process and what I can do in order to get a better experience.

Kindly also tell me places to visit in Ujjain and Indore, it will be of very help.

Thank you.

Please advise me. I’ll arrive in Ujjain in the afternoon and then stay for another two days. The flight onward is very inconvenient, so I’m considering staying one additional night. That would mean four nights in total, but I would have to shorten my stay in two other pilgrimage destinations. Is four nights in Ujjain too much? I have 15 days in total.

Hi everyone! I’ll be reaching Ujjain tomorrow and travelling solo. Would love to connect with any women who are travelling on the same date. 😊

we are travelling with our eight month old to Mahakal and I am looking stay near as we want to see the Maha sawari but we want to book such hotel so that we can see it from our balcony. Only. Only. Please suggest any hotel for the same from which is visible.

Gurdwara Bangla Sahib in delhi who want visit here?

Hey folks,
I’ve got an extra sleeper ticket for Bhopal to Nagda on 31st August.
Time- 16:30(4:30 PM)
Passengers: 2 Adults + 2 Children

Class: Sleeper

Original Price: ₹553

Offer Price: ₹400 (negotiable)

I’m cancelling anyway, so if anyone needs it, you can grab it cheaper. DM me if interested!

Can anyone suggest a good men’s or unisex salon in Ujjain? I’m looking to get a decent haircut, but since I’m new here, I don’t really know which places are reliable. It’d be great if you could recommend a salon that can work on my hair without messing it up. Thanks in advance!
