The holy event also marks the beginning of the month long Kaveri Jatra. Thousands of devotees tonsure their head and take holy dip in the pond. As part of the Kaveri Jatra, people perform holy dip at Triveni Sangama, confluence of the three rivers — Cauvery, Kannike and Sujyoti — and offer prayers at the Bhagandeshwara temple. Thousands of people reach Talacauvery to take a dip at the pond near Brahmakundike. Talacauvery is located around 8 km from Bhagamandala town.
