Mukkanuma

Mukkanuma

Fourth day of Sankranti is mukkanuma, a joyful day. Cock fights, bull fights and ram fights etc. are organized with joy and pomp. Some betting is done on cattle. Rangoli competitions are conducted for women.

Children play with kites. Kite flying also has a symbolic meaning. It is said that the higher your kite goes, the higher you will rise in future.
