Wishing you all a very Happy Tamil New Year .
Tamil New Year is celebrated on April 14th,first day of the Tamil month , Chithirai. It is one of the most important festival of TamilNadu. 'Chithirai' month is very special, as most of the festivals in Temples addressed as 'Chithirai Thiruvizha' is celebrated for 10 days. One of the most famous is 'Madurai Chithirai Thiruvizha', celebrated as the wedding of Lord Sundareshwarar and Goddess Meenakshi Amman.
To start the new year, every holdhold in TamilNadu draw colourful kolams, welcoming the year with bright, colourful memories and more happpiness. For this year, a simple rangoli in my flat.
On my pooja table , for Kuthuvizhakku.
