Aarti is generally performed at the end of a puja or bhajan session of almost all Hindu ceremonies and occasions. It involves the circulating of an 'Aarti plate' around a deity and is generally accompanied by the singing of songs in praise of that deva.

It is also believed that Puja ceremony gets completed with the performance of Aarti and it has lot of strength to overcome negativity, darkness and ignorance.
