Savitri Brata is the celebrated fast and pooja in Odisha which is observed by married women for the well-being and longer life expectancy of their husbands. On this day women observe fast and worship the Banyan Tree and Sabitri (the lady who snatched her husband's life from the god of death (YAMA)). This story of Satyavan and Sabitri is from the Mahabharata.

Savitri fell in love and married Satyban who only had one year of life. She left her kingdom and went on to live in a forest with her husband and in-laws who had lost their kingdom. A year after Satyaban died while cutting wood from a Banyan tree. When the lord of death Yama came to take his soul, She tricked Yama into giving the life of her husband back along with their lost kingdom and glory. Yama was shocked and impressed with the dedication and love Savitri had and they both got reunited and took vows around the Banyan tree. The tree marked their love and eternity of togetherness.
