The Hindu harvest festival Pongal, which is held each year in January, is now underway.
Thai Pongal is a harvest festival held in appreciation of the Sun God which is observed by Tamil people across the world.
It goes on for three days and starts at the beginning of the month of Tai which is the tenth month in the Tamil solar calendar – this usually falls on or around 14 January.
Wishes and greetings to celebrate Thai Pongal
A common greeting during Pongal is ‘thai pirandhal vazhi pirakkum’, which translates to ‘the birth of the month of Thai will pave the way for new opportunities’.
Other well-wishings include:
‘A new beginning is one of the eternal mysteries of life. Wishing you a very Happy Pongal.’
‘Greetings on Pongal! May the harvest festival ensure you always have the best food and best life.’
‘Let the warmth of the auspicious festival of Pongal fill your home with joy.’
