Onathappan is coming! For ten days, from September 10, the lush, prosperous state of Keralaam is positively overwhelmed with the joy of welcoming King Mahabali home. Onam celebrates the golden age of this mythical Asura ruler, who returns from Pathalam or the underworld to visit his people. When Mahabali or Maveli ruled, Kerala was a Utopian land. Everyone lived in happiness and equality.
