Every Year, I would go to my home town for Pongal Holidays. But this year decided to spend here in Hyderabad in Goltu istyle.
Sankranti Subhakankshalu.
In Andhra Pradesh, the festival is celebrated with a special color kolam (Rangoli) at their house, cooking food with the harvested rice and flying kites.
On demand prepared sakkarai pongal and Venn Pongal and it did came well.

I actually don't remember my childhood days of flying a kite. Deal, Maanja, pattam yellam nan konjam weak. Avi invited me for celebrating sankranti at his house. tappu tuppu duum was at avi's house by 12 noon. I 
really enjoyed the day by flying kites. vekkakedu.. learnt to put the thread, flew kite, lost many kites, total TP. Ppl here enjoy the whole day by flying kites. Every one of the house from thatha, paati, Cousin, ladies to kids assembled at mottai maadi. 
Aaratai, mokkai, loud music, cut others kite and then shout like mad, murruku and seedai are the repeated activites. Finally at around 5 o clock, when the wind was better we decided to fly the dragon kite gifted by ganesh. A huge, pro kite from US. Way back home stopped by necklace road, was zapped to see the whole enthu hyderabhadies flying kite there.. It was an awesome view, were you see thousands of kite flying in different colors at different heights. Different experience, another good day in my life..
