This is also the day when “Dhanvantri- Goddess of Health”, appeared from lord Vishnu’s “Samundra Manthan” with a golden pot of nectar in her hand. Praying to her on this day ensures good health. It is believed that whatever is bought on this day, flourishes multi folds and brings prosperity to the buyer. Buying gold, silver, electronics and even steel utensils is considered very fortunate on this day. People looking forward to strike a deal on property should pay the token amount on this day.
