Sankranti crackers at the Sivakasi price
Sankranti is the harvest festival, and in Telangana it belongs to the sky as much as the ground. Bhogi fires are lit at dawn on the first day, muggulu cover the front of every house, and from the roofs of Hyderabad the kites go up and stay up until dark.
Mid January, over three or four days· also called Makara Sankranti, Pongal

Why crackers belong to Sankranti
It is a daytime, family festival spread over several days, with relatives visiting and children on holiday. Crackers fit around the kites and the meals: a garland at the Bhogi fire, and small, bright items in the evenings when the kites come down.
What to buy
Buy for several evenings rather than one show. Lots of small novelties, chakkars and sparklers for the children, one garland for Bhogi morning, and a couple of bigger pieces for the last night. Over three days, count matters more than size.

Sankranti questions
When is Sankranti?
In mid January, on the day the sun enters Makara, with Bhogi the day before and Kanuma the day after. Check your calendar for the exact day in your year.
Do you deliver in January?
Yes, to every place we list in Telangana. Allow 3 to 6 days from dispatch, and order in the first week of January to be comfortable.
What suits a Sankranti with lots of children?
A wide spread of inexpensive, quiet items rather than one loud display: novelties, chakkars and plenty of sparklers. Keep the crackers well away from anyone flying kites from the roof.
