Answer 2

Answer:

Onam is an annual [4][5][6] holiday and festival celebrated in Kerala, India[7][8]. It is a harvest festival celebrated by Malayali irrespective of religion. Date of Onam is based on the Hindu Panchangam and falls on the 22nd nakshatra Thiruvonam in the month Chingam of Malayalam calendar, which in Gregorian calendar overlaps with August–September.[9][10] According to legends, the festival is celebrated to commemorate King Mahabali, whose spirit is said to visit Kerala at the time of Onam.[11][10]

Onam is a major annual event for Malayali people in and outside Kerala. It is a harvest festival, one of three major Hindu celebrations along with Vishu and Thiruvathira, and it is observed with numerous festivities.[12] Onam celebrations include Vallam Kali (boat races), Pulikali (tiger dances), Pookkalam (flower Rangoli), Onathappan (worship), Onam Kali, Tug of War, Thumbi Thullal (women's dance), Kummattikali (mask dance), Onathallu (martial arts), Onavillu (music), Kazhchakkula (plantain offerings), Onapottan (costumes), Atthachamayam (folk songs and dance), and other celebrations.[13] It is the New Year day for Malayalis.[14][15]

Onam is the official state festival of Kerala with public holidays that start four days from Uthradom (Onam eve).[16] Major festivities take place across 30 venues in Thiruvananthapuram,[17] capital of Kerala. It is also celebrated by Malayali diaspora around the world.[10] Though it's origins are often attributed to aspects in Hindu mythology, Onam is celebrated as a cultural festival across all communities in Kerala
