Devotees thronged the Mahakaleshwar temple in Madhya Pradesh’s Ujjain district on July 10, the first Monday of the holy ‘Sawan’. On the occasion of the first Monday of the holy month, thousands of devotees participated in the ‘Bhasma Aarti’ held in the Baba Mahakal temple and worshipped lord Shiva. 'Bhasma aarti' (offering with ashes) is a famous ritual here. It is performed during the 'Brahma Muhurta' between around 3:30 and 5:30 in the morning.
