Bhogi Pallu Ceremony:
Children between the ages of three and six are frequently showered with the Indian jujube fruit known as Regi Pallu in Andhra Telugu homes. For the event, the kids are dressed in vibrant outfits, including traditional Langa-Voni for the girls. They are covered in a potpourri of Regi Pallu, Senagalu (soaked and drained black grams), flower petals, sugarcane pieces, jaggery, and coins. Children are said to be protected from the evil eye and granted monetary abundance and long lives by the Bhogi Pallu ritual.
In addition to the Regi Pallu ceremony, there is also a children’s event called Ariselu Adugulu. Small children are asked to walk on ariselu(s), a sweet treat composed of rice, which is placed on the ground. To commemorate the day when the child learns to take its first step, Ariselu Adugulu is observed.
Numerous rangoli competitions are held to commemorate Bhogi, and large, vibrant rangolis are painted outside of residences and other structures. Many households have multi-tiered Bommala-Koluvu on display. Sweets are cooked in large numbers on Bhogi Day and shared among families and friends.
