As per Drik Panchang, the Dhanteras puja will begin at 7:02 pm and end at 8:18 pm.
According to beliefs, Lakshmi, the Goddess of wealth, comes out of the ocean at the time of the churning of milk. It is because of this reason that Goddess Lakshmi and Kubera, the God of wealth, are worshipped on this day. However, the Lakshami Puja which is performed two days later, the day of Amavasya is believed to be more significant.

Also, as per common belief, King Hima’s son was to die on the fourth day of his marriage due to a snake bite. However, to save his life his wife collected her ornaments in a heap and started narrating stories to her so that he remained awake and did not fall asleep. When Yamaraj, the god of death came to take his life in the form of a snake, he was blinded by the shine of gold and started listening to melodious songs. Since this day, people have started lighting diyas at night to worship Yamaraj.
