Here’s wishing you all a Happy Onam!

After the festival of Eid which was celebrated all over the world yesterday, today marked another festival – Onam, which is being celebrated all across India, especially in Kerala.  Onam marks the commemoration of home-coming of the King Mahabali. In Kerala, it is the festival celebrated with most number of cultural elements such as Vallam Kali, Pulikali, Pookkalam, Onathappan, Tug of War, Thumbi Thullal, Kummati kali, Onathallu, Onavillu, Kazhchakkula, Onapottan, Atthachamayam etc. Onam is reminiscent of Kerala's agrarian past, as it is considered to be a harvest festival.
