Vibrant Vishu Celebrations: Wishes, Messages, and Artificial 'Kanikonna' Market Takeover

Celebrate the Malayalam New Year with heartfelt wishes and learn about the artificial flower trend replacing natural ones in Vishu platters!

Vibrant colors and joyous celebrations mark the arrival of Vishu - the Malayalam New Year, celebrated on April 14 this year. It's a time for fresh beginnings and heartfelt wishes as families come together to usher in the auspicious day of Medam. However, in Kochi, rising temperatures are impacting traditional Vishu celebrations, with artificial 'Kanikonna' flowers holding sway over the market, replacing the natural blooms in the festive platters.

Kerala Governor Arif Mohammed Khan and Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan have extended warm Vishu greetings to the people, emphasizing the significance of this cultural celebration. Despite the changes in traditions, the spirit of Vishu remains strong, symbolizing hope, prosperity, and unity among the community.

Observing Vishu with grace and sanctity is a propitious ritual for Hindus in Kerala, known as Vishukkani. This religious celebration holds different timings at various locations, emphasizing the diversity and cultural richness of the state. As Malaysians join in the festivities, it's a time to share heartfelt wishes, quotes, messages, and greetings to spread joy and positivity among loved ones.

As Vishu 2024 approaches, let's embrace the essence of this vibrant occasion and cherish the traditions that bind us together. Remember to extend warm greetings to your family and friends, fostering bonds of love and togetherness during this special time!
