Pongal Festival In Sri Lanka

Children are captured on camera during the Pongal festival in Ayagama, Sri Lanka, on January 14, 2025. Pongal marks the start of the Tamil month Thai in mid-January and celebrates the arrival of the harvest season. It is primarily dedicated to worshiping the Lord Surya, as the Sun is believed to play a crucial role in crop growth. Pongal is one of the most important festivals celebrated by Tamil people in Tamil Nadu and other parts of South India. It is also a major Tamil festival in Sri Lanka and is observed by the Tamil diaspora worldwide. (Photo by Thilina Kaluthotage/NurPhoto)
