SANKRANTI
is an important festival for Telugus and people
in rural Andhra look forward to this harvest festival,
which has different attractions for different
people. With crops harvested people have both
money and leisure to make merry with. Farmers
give new clothes and grain to the laborers who
work for them.
Houses are spruced up,
cattle are bathed and decorated. Womenfolk vie
with each other displaying their skills drawing
a variety of eye-catching and artistic `muggulu'
(floral patterns on the floor) in their neatly
swept front yards sprinkled with cow-dung water.
Housewives are busy preparing
mouth-watering delicacies and preserving them
from the prowling children.
|
Gangireddulu, buda-budakkalu and
daasarlu going around singing songs and collecting gifts
and alms are a common sights.
The celebrations last for
3 to 4 days, the first day is Bhogi, the second day
being Sankranti and the third day as Kanuma. The fourth
day, Mukkanuma, is also celebrated by some. Bhogi, the
first day is marked with gaiety. People wake up early
to put up a bon fire (Bhogi manta) with all the agricultural
wastes and firewood to keep warm during this last lap
of winter.
