Sankranti Celebrations - The Traditional Hyderabadi Way?

hydgrr · Jan 10, 2008

Hi Ladies,
As Sankranti is next week I thought if someone could enlighten people like me how to celebrate it in a real Hyderabadi traditional way??
I know that its celebrated over a period of 3 days so if someone can tell me exactly what to do eat day, what pujas have to be performed and what sweets are traditionally made shall be very helpful to me and I guess to many others ILs too.

Thanks,
-Priya
