This year, Day One of Navratri is marked by white -- a colour that embodies purity, peace and new beginnings.
From Vallam Kali to Puli Kali, Onam in Kerala is nothing short of a grand cultural extravaganza.
The length and drape of the sari varies; some may be less than the traditional six yards, like the half sari, while others like the Maharashtrian Nnauvari or the Tamilian Madisar is be nine yards. Kodagu saris too can be nine yards long.
No glam, no problem for this Chandramukhi 2 actress.
The actress, who starred alongside Prithviraj Sukumaran in Kaduva, pulls in 2 million fans with her smiles and saris.
Both she, and her fashion choices, are as cute as a button.
How to look gorgeous this Onam without compromising on the festive spirit.
She has a huge fashion appetite for saris and ethnic garb.
Nothing combines elegance and beauty better than a Kerala kasavu sari.
Her mantra is: "Wear what makes you feel comfortable!"
At Jolly Aikara's Mumbai home, Onam is as big a day as Christmas and Semiya Payasam is still a hot favourite.
