Married Women and Girls who are about to get married observe this teej. On the day of teej they get up early and have a holy bath.  In this festival, women do severe fasting without eating and drinking anything, not even water. 

On this day, a pandal (small pooja rooms with barks and leaves) is set up inside the home. An idol of Goddess Parvati is dressed in new clothes and placed in the pandal. Along with it, a shivling made of clay is also placed inside the pandal. 

Women apply henna on their hands and feet as a part of this ritual. They also dress up in new green coloured clothes, new jewellery, wear green bangles and put a golden coloured bindi. 

Women read out stories of Goddess Parvati and Lord Shiva on this occasion, and they also sing festive songs and dance amongst themselves. They worship the deities with all paraphernalia. The Gods are offered fruits, vegetables and some special preparations such as rice patolis and sweets. 

Some women also hang decorated swings from trees and sit on them singing Teej and Saawan songs. 

Husbands too take full part in this festival as they bring presents for their wives and help them in preparations. Teej celebrations are not only about women and celebrations inside the house. The festival is celebrated across the city as processions are taken out with colourfully decked idols of Goddess Parvati. 

A lot of singers and dancers follow the procession and show their skills. It is a colourful and beautiful festival that brings people from various walks of life together as they dance and celebrate the festival along with performers.
