Tirumala: The annual Bhaag Savari Utsavam, a unique religious fete, which is usually observed on the immediate day after the completion of annual Brahmostavams of Lord Venkateswara at Tirumala, was observed with religious ecstasy on Wednesday evening. According to Tirumala temple legend, to testify the devotion of Sri Anantalwar, the Lord Himself dons as a human being and comes to Anantalwar Gardens, along with His consort Sridevi. When both of them were plucking the flowers, Anantalwar caught hold of Goddess and tied her to the Aswatha tree and when he tried to catch the Lord, he escapes in the reverse direction (opposite way) and disappears inside the sanctum.
