Tamil Nadu's jallikattu villages experience business Boom!!!
MADURAI: The jallikattu town in madurai district comes to life as the sun rises over Palamedu, although for a short time. Every year, on the day the famous bull sport is performed in the hinterland of tamil Nadu to celebrate the pongal festival, A Alagarsamy, 65, and his wife A Kottaiammal, 58, switch from being customers to being caterers.
They have a modest concrete home in the bazaar neighbourhood with a living room and a small, cramped kitchen. The couple begins preparing and selling food during the jallikattu celebration. Normally, they put up a little vegetable shop in front of their home. The night before the bull taming competition, the couple starts chopping vegetables in front of their house with the assistance of their sons. tuesday is set aside for the major celebration in Palamedu.
Avaniyapuram, Palamedu, and Alanganallur in the madurai district, the famous jallikattu locations where incomes are meagre and lifestyles basic and unostentatious, see a brief flurry of business. On Jallikattu Day, they charge a fee to turn their house terraces into little galleries and serve food and ropes to bull owners. To see the renowned jallikattu event, people travel to Palamedu from various parts of the state.
