Happy Pongal. Makara  Sankranthi, Uttarayan, Lohri. Same festival, different names and rituals. In Marathi, they say, “Tilgul ghya god god bola”,. In Kannada, we say, “YeL tindu olle maathadu”. “Eat sesame and talk well about all” roughly translated. 
 

khara pongal or sakkara pongal? I like khara better.

Dumb Hindians, it is Makara in Sanskrit, Tamil, Kannada. And it is not Kannad, Keral. :wall:  Else we will start calling it Haryan instead of Haryana. Or Madh Pradesh, Odish

I just feel lucky that no one from the wrong side of the Vindhyas thought the "Happy" in ("Happy Pongal") was someone's name.

Khara all the way.  With a well-made aviyal and/or tomato gothsu (Kannada: gojju).

In Kannada its "Yellu Bella tindu olle maathadi " not just sesame.. as far as I know. 

 

Anyway Happy Sankranti
