Onam

Loving Sairam to you Sir and Madam.

We are so happy that you are in Prasanthi Nilayam on this holy occasion of Onam and all of us heard your talk in the Sai Kurvant Hall.

It is a pleasant surprise for us that your association with Bhagawan goes back to the 1970s.

So please tell us about how you have been connected to Baba.

All these were the sons of Joktan.

Now these are the kings that reigned in the land of Edom before there reigned any king over the children of Israel, Bela the son of Beor, and the name of his city was Din-haba.

And Bela died, and Jobab the son of Zerah of Basra reigned in his stead.

Shahina, so one thing I noticed is that just a few days ago, Kerala was very much in the synopsis of all social media.

Kerala was the center of all attention of social media because of videos which emerged from the state of Muslim women and hijab and nakab or whatever, dancing to Onam.

And then suddenly a week later, This news comes that Samasta's chief says that women should not be in public spaces, that if women are exhibited in public places, it could cause destruction.

So I see an irony there, right? One week we are celebrating these young women and the next week I almost feel like the Samasta circular was also because of what happened during Onam.

I think this circular came out, the period, the time in which the circular came out, has something, it says something about it.

I think precisely this is the backdrop of the whole controversy.

They are smart enough not to make it very specific.

And there is one more thing.

Let's do that first.

Yeah, I watched the new Onam release from the Malayalam film industry, which is Bethlehem Kudumba Unit.

And it is...

Honestly, we're looking for something that's sort of like a slice-of-life rom-com that's just full of really well-etched characters who are cute and funny.

Thank you, Dhanya.

How was your Onam? How much did you eat?

Onam was very good.

In fact, I was not happy with the amount of palada I drank, and therefore I ordered one liter more of palada.

Oh my God.

You are the Malayali, but I made it at home and it was yum, even if I'm saying so myself.

Making is not in my genes.

You know, I, I see a lot of discussion now as to has Onam become really popular in the last five years-

No, that's over 'cause we weren't in town.

This is the Onam celebration, so-

Oh, yes

... 25 Hours Hotel.

Oh, where is it, Jeff?

Happy Onam, everybody.

Thank you.

It's happening at 25 Hours Hotel.
