    India the most beautiful country with so much culture, natural beauty, you name them and the list can go on. A whole life is not enough to explore this wonderful country. The Karavali Utsav and the beach festival is an example of the splendour of India. Hat's of KARAVALI, MALANAD, MANGALORE, well done!!! Sadly with hooliganism, goodaism and dirty politics, the very essence of PEACE, LOVE, FREEDOM is being destroyed and to the western world we are like the 3rd class... Wake up India, Wake Up!!!

    It is nice to see such festivals are coming up and filling the joys in the heart of Mangloreans. But be careful about the safety measures as the Panambur beach is not a safe beach to swim.

    Interesting to see a western culture of cutting ribbons during ceremonies being displayed with a saffron ribbon.The Indian Tradition is breaking coconuts. A reminder to all the Hindutva Culture Protectionists.

    whn i saw these pictures,the only thought came to my mind is Ramasena, becoz these are the ones who cannot see any public gatherings & they might come any time to chase people. very rediculous .

    Kesarimaya is the sign of culture and it may be applicable to Fashion Show also in future. If no Kesari sign then it would be a western culture and the attack will be guaranteed. Does this people know what is life and how to live with respect along with respecting other religious people? It's all lack of generosity and clear complex mind.
