ONAM

Keralites all over the world are gearing to celebrate Onam on Friday, 28 August.

All You Need To Know About Onam Festival

Onam is celebrated in the Malayalam month of Chingam. The 10-day-long harvest festival is celebrated from Atham to Thiruvonam.

Legend

The festival marks the homecoming of mythical king Mahabali, who emerges from the netherworld to visit his people in Kerala.

According to Onam’s popular myth, Lord Vishnu, who took the avatar of Vamana, sent Mahabali to Paathalam as many were jealous of his popularity. However, he was granted the boon to visit his subjects once a year.

Onam Traditions

Onam is all about being happy and engaging in fun-filled activities. From wearing traditional attires, laying flower carpets (Athapookalam), performing Thiruvathira dance, having Onasadya (Sumptuous feast) to Onakalikal (games), the 10-day-long festival promises a lot of happy moments.
