This short documentary of less than 45 minutes covers the 9 day Navaratri culminating in Maha Shivaratri at the Mahakaleshwar temple in Ujjain. One of the 9 Jyotir Lingas, this temple has been a place of devotion since centuries with mention even in Kalidasa's Meghadootam. One learns about the aspect and research into time, calendars and astronomy that has happened in ancient times with this temple as a focal point. The documentary covers how this temple formed the earlier prime meridian for good reason.
The throng and level of devotion among the bhaktas makes one yearn to be part of them. Getting a view of the Garbha Gruha and the Maja Shivaratri decorations and Puja was the crowning glory. There is also good coverage of the temples around the area. Overall a well created documentary..
