Answer:

Pongal (பொங்கல், /ˈθaɪˈpoʊŋʌl/, also spelled Poṅkal), is also referred to as Thai Pongal (தைப்பொங்கல், also spelled Tai Pongal), is a multi-day harvest festival celebrated by all religions of South India, particularly in the Tamil community.[1][5][6] It is observed at the start of the month Thai according to Tamil solar calendar,[5] and this is typically about January 14.[1][2] It is dedicated to the sun god,[7] the Suryan, and corresponds to Makar Sankranti, the harvest festival under many regional names celebrated throughout India.[8][9][10] The three days of the Pongal festival are called Bhogi Pongal, Surya Pongal and Maattu Pongal.[8] Some Tamils celebrate a fourth day of Pongal as Kanum Pongal.[6]
