This year, Thrissur pooram returned with all its might and glory.
The venchamaram should be raised when the rhythm of the orchestra changes.
Pooram lovers from far and wide are busy enjoying every colourful facet of the age-old festival.
The Health Department has urged all those people attending the Pooram to drink lots of water and to carry water bottles with them.
The legendary Peruvanam Kuttan Maraar, who had led the Ilanjitharamelam for 24 years on a trot, will be missing in action this time.
While the main programmes of the meet are scheduled on March 30, 31 and April 1, cultural events and a boat trip are among the engagements planned on April 2.
Kizhakkoottu Aniyan Marar is the new 'Pramani' replacing the 69-year-old Kuttan Marar.
The pooram, the largest of festivals, was confined to mere rituals during the past two years due to COVID-19.
The festival which kick-started last Wednesday reached its peak today with a veritable percussion feast and the majestic sight of 30 of the most famous elephants in Kerala lined up in all their finery.
The organisers are yet to announce a fresh timing for the fireworks display that was earlier scheduled to begin at 3 am on Wednesday.
