This was the first time I was shooting this important milk ritual in good light and the milk is blown into the devotees mouth to lubricate the steel rod and make it movable in the mouth.
The same technique is applied when the rod is removed at the Maryamma temple after several hours , the guys with the 18 feet rods in the mouth sometimes with hooks on the back pull cars and move in a procession , a very slow tedious procession through the main road of Sion Koliwada .
I was shooting this event here for the first time barefeet , dog tired in my diabetic condition without food or drink.
All I had was jeera and lime before the piercings began at the Sai Baba Temple.
