As someone who married into a Malayali family, I've come to love Onam celebrations. The pookalam, sadhya, and family gatherings are truly special. Great to see the PM acknowledging this beautiful festival too.

While I appreciate the cultural celebrations, I wish more emphasis was placed on the environmental aspect of Onam. The plastic waste from celebrations is becoming a concern that needs addressing.

Onam sadhya is the highlight for me! 26 dishes on a banana leaf - nothing compares to that feast. Malavika's photos and Mohanlal's message captured the festival spirit perfectly. ഓണാശംസകൾ! 🍛
