About Onam 2022:
Malayalis celebrate Onam to commemorate the Great King Mahabali's return to his native Kerala or wherever else in the world. It is also thought to signal Kerala's harvest season. Ten days are spent celebrating the celebration, which is done in tremendous splendour.
Onam festival brings all the colours, history, culture and its beliefs of Kerala together. Flower carpets called Pookalam, banquet lunches, boat races, Puli Kali, and the Kaikottikkali dance are some of the major attractions of the festival.
It is celebrated during Chingam (a month in Malayalam calendar) that usually starts between mid-August and lasts up to mid-September. The celebration typically lasts for 10 days, where Keralites indulge in numerous celebratory acts throughout the festival.
Most symbolic of the onam festival is the Onam sadhya. Onam Sadhya is the traditional multi-course vegetarian meal served on the festive occasion, on a banana leaf featuring over 25 dishes.
