Makarsankranti 2026 Celebrating the festival of joy, kites, and sunshine.

The day when the Sun enters the Capricorn zodiac (Makar Rashi) and marks the beginning of longer days.

People celebrate positivity, renewal, and gratitude for the harvest season.

Colorful kites fill the sky as families gather on rooftops for Uttarayan celebrations.

Tilgul, jaggery sweets, khichdi, curd-rice, and seasonal sugarcane delicacies are enjoyed.

Different states celebrate differently: Pongal (Tamil Nadu), Bihu (Assam), Lohri (Punjab), Uttarayan (Gujarat).

“May the sunshine bring new hope.” “Let your dreams fly high like kites.”
