Thirunellai

This year's Car festival witnessed rain, just whenever the procession is ready. But the mood of Thirunellaites were not damped by the rain. The missing feature was chenda-melam before the theru. Click to see pictures of 8th Day (Kuthirayottam) & 9th Day (Theru) here .

2011 രാധോല്സവത്തിനു കൊടിയേറി കഴിഞ്ഞു. ഇനി ദിവസങ്ങള്‍ നീണ്ട ആഘോഷങ്ങളും കൂടിചേരലുകളും തിരുനെല്ലയില്‍ കാണാം. ഏപ്രില്‍  22 ഉം 23 ഉം മറക്കല്ലേ. രാധോല്സവം ഒരിക്കലും മറക്കാനാവാത്ത അനുഭവങ്ങള്‍ തരുമാറാകട്ടെ. Photo Courtesy: Facebook Group
