They don’t call it Vidaiyatri, but that’s what it is after the Kodi comes down. There were dance performances which caused the nadaswaram player Venkat some annoyance, as the unjal time is meant to be for nadaswaram but he said the priest’s right hand man is the one organising such events. Amman alankaram sitting and her new husband lying beside her, as though just off her lap. Lots of ceremonial mariyaadai happening, starting with the Bhagavatar (naturally). We left midway as it felt increasingly like an acknowledgment event.
Schedule: Day 23: 730pm to 930pm unjal utsavam
