However, the temple was closed for worshipers due to restrictions.
People have Darshan from gods from outside the temple.
“It will be a satisfying experience if we are permitted in the temple because it is one important aspect of the Onam celebration,” said Aravind Kutty, 40 years old.
“While limitations are needed to prevent the spread of Covid further, people keep coming to the temple to see if it will be open to Darshan specifically,” he said.
Malayale made Rangoli flowers, an integral part of the Harvest Festival, in front of the house on Saturday morning.
Because food is an integral part of the celebration, City hotels offer interesting combo from Onam Sadhya and even take bookings in advance.
While Onam is celebrated at an educational institution in a way, this year, college and school teachers celebrate the festival for the past week, most of which are subdued.
Students attending online classes from home skip Rangoli competitions and the opportunity to wear traditional clothes.
