Thank you for the Ugadi wishes- though we Telugu and the Kannada people call it Ugadi, it is in fact a New Year’s Day for Maharashtrians, Konkinis, Kashmiris and Sindhis too !
I also wanted to share with you how we- every Telugu home (perhaps Kannada too) – compulsorily prepares one particular dish—whether anything else is prepared or not – ugadi pachchadi.
UGADI is in fact Yuga (Age, Era)+adi (Begiinning)— the beginning of a New Age
And the “Ugadi pachchadi” (chutney ) is a unique mix of newly ripened tamarind juice, newly blossomed neem flowers, newly fruited raw mango bits, newly made jaggery, newly grown sugarcane bits ..
And it means – “the sour, the acrid, the tangy, the sweet and the bitter- this is what life is all about, pal !”

TN govt changed the Tamil New Year to 14th Jan and named it as Tiruvalluvar Era(not sarvadhari). DMK has put a ban on any pooja in temples on 1st Chitra month which was the original new year. So no temples in TN does any special pooja for New Year. This is because the temples are in govt control.
Its a different thing that Tamils still celebrate new year as per the old date, they are visiting temples on this day as usual though there is no special pooja. Obviously Karunanidhi can’t stop people from going to temple, yet.
