Onam is the rice harvest festival of Kerala. It is a celebration of 10 days, with Atham being the first and Thiruvonam being the last day. These two days are the most important days of the festivities. Numerous cultural events take place during this time depicting the culture of Kerala at its best. Onam commemorates the homecoming of King Mahabali. He was the generous ruler of Kerala who was known for his popularity and power. He was a member of the demon clan, due to which devas and gods were believed to be jealous of him and they sent Lord Vishnu, Vamana, in the form of a dwarf Brahmin, to end his reign. Vamana asked for three feet of land from king Mahabali as his wish to which Mahabali agreed. As the whole space was measured by Vamana’s two feet, Mahabali offered him his head for the space of the third one. Pleased by Mahali’s benevolence, Vamana granted the king’s sole wish to visit his land and people once a year.
