The five-day religious event will focus on the glory and significance of Khatu Shyam Ji and is expected to draw devotees from across Udaipur. Addressing devotees and members of the organizing committee, the speaker extended greetings and expressed gratitude to the Krishna Seva Sansthan, temple committee, priests, volunteers and visitors for their participation. The speaker said that the arrival of Baba Shyam's Katha in Udaipur is considered a matter of great fortune and spiritual significance. Referring to Khatu Shyam Ji as the “Three-Arrows Bearer”, he said the Katha will explore the religious significance of the three arrows and various legends associated with Baba Shyam. The programme will also feature detailed discussions on important religious episodes connected with Mahisagar Sangam Tirth, where Baba Shyam is believed to have undertaken penance, as well as references to Maa Kamakhya and other important spiritual traditions.

The speaker emphasized the importance of service during religious events, particularly Annadan (donation of food), describing it as one of the highest forms of charity. The organizers also expressed their appreciation to those contributing to the food arrangements and extended birthday blessings to Kalu Ram Ji, who was associated with the food-service arrangements.
