Onam 2022: Messages, greetings and wishes to send to your loved ones

Onam is among the most widely celebrated festivals in Kerala. This year the festival will be observed from 30 August to 8 September. This day is marked in the month of Chingam- the first month of the Malayali calendar- to commemorate the return of the demon king Mahabali to Earth. He was a devotee of Lord Vishnu and was among the most benevolent kings mentioned in the Hindu scriptures. People make vibrant floral designs (Pookkalam or rangoli) in front of their homes during Onam. Onam Sadhya, a vegetarian meal consisting of many traditional dishes served on a banana leaf, is one of the highlights of the festival. It is believed that the last four days of the festival are of great significance. Out of these, the last day or Thiruvonam is considered to be the most significant. During Onam, women wear a white and gold saree called Kasavu and decorate their hair with white flower garlands. Dance performances are also a part of the celebration. During the 10-day festival, snake boat races and local dance and martial arts performances like Kummattikali and Onathallu also take place.
