Oonjal


Once the Kasi Yatra was over we headed over to the swing where the ladies of my house cleansed Ashwin's feet with milk. There were atleast 5 women who did this, so as not to bore everyone I just chose a random one in which my father's sister is washing Ashwin's feet.

Thereafter starting with my grandmother takes out "sutti" which is essentially taking off the evil eyes. A little bit of turmeric rice is used for this purpose.


Some singing and then the final aarti


The happy decorated couple (is Ashwin really happy here, or just trying to be scary ??)
