The Alagar/Lord Vishnu/Krishna is taken from Alagarkoil to Madurai slowly and by making couple of stops on the way. The real festival is when he reaches the vaigai river bank and there was lot of enthusiasm. This had brought people from all over southern part of tamil nadu. Madurai was so colorful and full of festive mood.

It is considered that when reaching the vaigai river bank, he hears that marriage is over, so he gets angry and returns back from the vaigai river bank to Alagarkovil.
