Pann Mubarak "Pann / Pun Deun" is one of the important celebrations of Kashmiri Pandits. This is an auspicious day on which this day is of Bhadroon around Ganesh Chuturthi festival. In Kashmir it is called 'Vinayak Choram'. The day starts with the making of the Roths (Roti). The work starts with collecting fresh water, washing all the utensils and making sure everything used for the The head lady has to wear a cotton thread made by an unmarried girl and put her around her right ear during the making of the Roths. Pann Puja is extremely pure. Throughout the making of the Roths no one is allowed to gossip, rather the task is carried by chanting holy mantras.  After the Roths are prepared they are kept in a big cane basket and covered with fresh cotton cloth. These Roths are not allowed to be touched or eaten before the Puja. Then the big Lota or Gadvi is filled with fresh water and decorated with garlands, silver foil, Naerivan (Mauli) and Sindoor or Kum-Kum. Now this Lota is covered with a big Roth and couple of small ones and some dry fruits, fresh fruits etc. Naerivan is applied on the wrist and tilak on the forehead of all the family members. They then sit with some washed grains, flowers and little fresh grass (Dramun) in their folded hands and any member of the family (who fully knows the story) narrates the traditional story of the "Beib Darb Maej". As the story ends, the head lady opens the lid of the lota which was covered with the Roth and every one offers grains, flowers, dramun etc to the goddess wishing prosperity and health. Then the Roths are distributed among all the members of the family as Prasad. These Roths are also distributed among relatives, neighbors and friends.
