| Tamil new year significance reveals manifold tales from Hindu mythology. On 14th of April, the first month of the year, Chitthirai begins, so Tamilians find this day of great significance and rejoice with pomp and rituals. They have several other reasons too for celebrating this day as Lord Brahma was believed to commence sculpting this world on this pious day and goddess Meenakshi wedded to Lord Sundareswarar on this day. Well, there is a significant contribution of Ramayana behind the great passion of festivities as after fourteen years of exile and victorious destruction over Lanka, returned to Ayodhya and was crowned on this day. |
