Sri Vishwavasu Naama Samvatsara Ugadi

Ugadi marks the first day of the Hindu calendar's Chaitra month and heralds the arrival of spring. It's believed to be a time of new beginnings, hope, and prosperity.

Ugadi Pachadi: This unique dish symbolizes life's different emotions. Made with ingredients like tamarind, jaggery, neem flowers, salt, and raw mango, it represents six tastes—sour, sweet, bitter, salty, spicy, and tangy—depicting the varied experiences of life.

On Ugadi, astrologers traditionally read panchangam (the Hindu almanac) to predict events for the coming year.
