The next day, Mul Bizhu, is a time for socialising by visiting each other in their village, participating in traditional games, and cooking special curries and sweets for the day. The day ends with a performance of the Bizhu dance. The last day, Gojjepojje din is set aside for the performance of various religious and social activities.
