About the Festivals
Onam is a ten-day harvest festival celebrated primarily in Keralam and marks the annual homecoming of the legendary King Mahabali.
The festival culminates with Thiruvonam, the tenth and most auspicious day, which is being observed on Wednesday.
People celebrate Onam by wearing new clothes, creating floral decorations known as Pookkalam and preparing the traditional vegetarian feast, Onasadya, served on a banana leaf.
Milad-un-Nabi is observed to commemorate the birth anniversary of Prophet Muhammad.
