Patna/Varanasi/Ujjain: People from across the country are worshipping their deities and performing 'Havans' for India's win in the all-important T20 World Cup 2024 final against South Africa.

All the Brahmins recited Hanuman Chalisa holding the pictures of the players of the Indian team in their hands, while Krishna Kumar alias Kallu is seen performing aarti of Hanuman ji. Krishna Kumar said that today is the final match of the T20 World Cup.

"In the temple of Sankat Mochan, we are reciting Hanuman Chalisa with the Brahmins and praying to God that just like India has reached the final by playing and winning all the matches, it should win today's match as well," quipped Krishna Kumar.

Similarly, prayers were performed at the famed Baba Vishwanath temple in Varanasi for the Indian team's win and at the Siddhivinayak temple in Mumbai.
