Vishu 2023: Keralites celebrate traditional New Year
Apr 15, 2023
On Vishu day, many Keralites wake up at dawn and take darshan at 'Vishu Kani' which is a collection of auspicious items(flowers, fruits, vegetables, rice and a small statue of lord Krishna) along with a Nilavilaku, a lamb. For the Vishu Kani children with their eyes covered with hands are led from their beds towards it by elders. Eyes are opened when they reach the Vishu Kani and have a darshan it.
