Onam occurs on the day of Nakshatra Thiruvonam in the month of Chingam according to the Malayali solar calendar. The pious celebrations honour Vamana, Lord Vishnu’s avatar, and the return of King Mahabali.
The celebration also marks Kolla Varsham, the start of the Malayalam calendar year. In the month of Chingam, which occurs in August or September on the Gregorian calendar, the festival of Onam is observed.
When is Onam 2023? Onam 2023 start and end date
Onam will start on Atham on August 20th, 2023, and last until Thiruvonam on August 29th, 2023. As it is said that on this day, the legendary King Mahabali, son of Veerochana and grandson of Prahlad, comes to Kerala from the underworld to visit his people, Thiruvonam is regarded as the most significant day of the festival.
Yet we all are eager to put a caption on our social media or wish our far-off friends and family by exchanging well wishes for the day.

“സന്തോഷത്തിൻ്റെയും സമൃദ്ധിയുടേയും ഈ ഓണനാളുകളിൽ നിനക്കും കുടുംബത്തിനും സന്തോഷവും ആരോഗ്യവും നേരുന്നു. ഓണത്തപ്പൻ്റെ അനുഗ്രഹം നിങ്ങൾക്കെന്നും ഉണ്ടായികട്ടെ!”
“ഓർമ്മകൾ കൂടുകൂട്ടിയ മനസ്സിൻറെ തളിർ ചില്ലയിൽ ചേക്കേറാൻ ഒരു ഓണക്കാലം കൂടി വരവായി… നിനക്കെൻ്റെ ഹൃദയം നിറഞ്ഞ ഓണാശംസകൾ!”
Wishing a Happy and blissful Onam to everyone celebrating!
