Thiruvananthapuram's beauty lies in its pluralism, when different religious people celebrate without having to claim, that this is mine.

Today, we have the Attukal Pongala the largest women-only festival.

The ladies at home used to go near the temple to make the offering, to caress the symbol of peace, justice, security (aka Mother).

Now, they do it at home.

Men are used as porters or just forgotten.
