Some people
call it Makar Sankranti or the Festival of Kites but in this part of the world
it is fondly called Uttarayan. We Amdavadis hardly care about the significance
of the day in terms of Hindu mythology, for us it is a day of War and there are
warriors of each age group occupying the terraces from morning to late night
and that too for two long days.
Uttarayan is
a day of merry making with family and friends in the company of Patang,
Undhiyu, Jalebi, Chikki, Lilva Ni Kachori (small balls stuffed with beans) and
loads of fun.
Once Diwali
ends, old Ahmedabad city gears up for Uttarayan in a traditional way. Manja is
prepared, kites are specially customized, safety tapes and sunglasses are
ordered in advance, paper tukkals and electric tukkals are on the top priority
list and special huge white Dhaals (a huge patang which is used to fly tukkals)
are stocked for the D-Day actually the night of Uttarayan.
On the eve
of Uttarayan, many a times it happens that there is no wind which helps flying kites easily which is a major
turn off for the city. But Amdavadis make the most of that time in playing
cricket, eating new delicacies, enjoying the crackers so nothing can stop an
Amdavadi on this very day.
