Chitalagai Amavasya (Chitlagi Amavasi, Chitou Amavasya) is observed on New-Moon day in Shravan month or Sravana maas in Odisha. It is an important festival in Puri Jagannath Temple. ‘Chita’ or decorating Lord Jagannath’s forehead with a golden mark is the main ritual of this Amabasya in Puri Jagannath Temple. Yesterday when i was about to soak rice to make pitha then when i just break the coconut, it was rotten 🙈. So i dint make any for today! When i told this to mom @bhagyabatip she did some beautiful #foodphotography and sent me this photo 😍😍. How can i not post this 💗. ‘Chitou Pitha’, a special rice recipe, is offered to Lord Jagannath on this day. In rural areas of Orissa, this festival is celebrated as an agricultural fest. Chitalagi Amavasya is observed as #hariyaliamavasya in North India, #ChukkalaAmavasya in Andhra Pradesh, #GatariAmavas in Maharashtra, #BhimanaAmavasya in Karnataka. Happy #chitalagi or #chitouamavasya to all who celebrate. #odisha @odishabuzz @bhubaneswarbuzz #odiafood #ameodiani #odia #berhampur #bhubaneswar #india #indianfoodbloggers #odiafoodblogger #odiastyle #momlife #momcooking #momblogger (at Singapore)
