The sarees can be of different fabrics like cotton, organza, silk, crepe silk, georgette, and patola silk. The young girls wear a full-length blouse and shawl, this is called Padava or half saree. Men wear lungi with a white shirt and angavastram. The lungis can be of different colours but the shirt is pure white. To complete the look, men apply Vibhuti along with sandal paste on their forehead and women apply Kum-Kum on their hands, feet, and forehead.
This traditional wear is not complete without gold jewellery like chains, payals, necklaces, bangles, earrings, and maang-tikka. Apart from ornaments, women in Tamil Nadu love to decorate their hair with flower garlands, known as Gajras.
Food: South Indian delicacies are loved and consumed by a major part of India. Whether you are a non-vegetarian or a vegetarian, the tangy and sweet flavour of South Indian food is always a mood changer. But to list all South Indian food into one category is also not right. The food of Tamil Nadu is distinct from that of Kerala, Andhra Pradesh, and Karnataka. Uttapam, Banana Bonda, Rasam, Dosa, Murukku, Sambar, Lemon Rice, Idli, and Vada are some of the most famous foods of Tamil Nadu.
Dance and Music: Besides food, temples, architecture, Tamil Nadu is known for art and entertainment. It is renowned for its Carnatic music and dance forms; many of which are solo as well as groups. Some noteworthy dance forms of Tamil Nadu are Bharatnatyam, Bamber Dance, Karakattam, Kavadi Aattam, and Devaraattam. When it comes to music, Pann or now called Carnatic music, is a classical music form of Southern India.
Festivals: The colourful festivals of Tamil Nadu get people into the festive spirit and bind them together irrespective of who they are. Being such a culturally rich state, no wonder Tamil Nadu has an array of dazzling festivals that are celebrated with full fun and fervour. With rangolis, bright silk saris, beautifully decorated temples, and of course grand celebrations, here are some of the most famous festivals of Tamil Nadu that are celebrated with much enthusiasm - Pongal, Tamil New Year’s Day, Natyanjali Dance Festival, Mahamaham Festival, Thiruvaiyaru Festival, and Thiruvaiyaru Festival.
