About Gudi Padwa
Gudi Padwa marks the Marathi and Konkani New Year and the arrival of spring. It falls on the first day of Chaitra, the same day as Ugadi in Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, and Karnataka. It is considered one of the “saadetni muhurat” — the three and a half most auspicious days in the Hindu calendar to begin new ventures. Families clean and decorate their homes, draw rangoli, hoist the Gudi, prepare festive dishes like puran poli and shrikhand, and seek blessings for the year ahead.
