Onapattukal
A lot of folk songs are prevalent in the category of onapattukal. Most of them describe the rituals, ceremonies and pastimes of onam. In one of the songs it is described that during the reign of maveli, people were equal and never even spoke a lie. The belief that maveli visits kerala on thiruvonam day is described here. People wish to receive maveli with grandeur and do the needful for that. They make pookkalam (decorating figure with varicolored flowers) in front of their houses.
