Sankranti crackers at the Sivakasi price
In Andhra Pradesh, Sankranti is the biggest family festival of the year, the one people call Pedda Panduga. Families travel back to their home towns and villages, Bhogi fires are lit before dawn, the front of every house disappears under coloured muggulu, and the Haridasu and the decorated Gangireddu bulls go from door to door.
Mid January, across Bhogi, Sankranti and Kanuma· also called Pedda Panduga

Why crackers belong to Sankranti
With the whole family home for three or four days, the evenings turn into small celebrations of their own. Crackers sit beside the food and the visiting: a garland when the Bhogi fire catches, and bright, gentle items for the cousins after dinner each night.
What to buy
Plan for several evenings and a crowd of children rather than one big show. Lots of novelties, chakkars and sparklers, a garland for the Bhogi fire, and a couple of larger pieces for the last night before everyone heads back. With so many cousins in one courtyard, the number of pieces counts for more than their size.

Sankranti questions
When does Sankranti fall?
In the middle of January, when the sun moves into Makara. Bhogi comes the day before and Kanuma the day after, and the exact day shifts slightly, so check your calendar for the year.
Will you deliver for Sankranti?
Yes, to every town and neighbourhood we list in Andhra Pradesh. Parcels take 3 to 6 days from dispatch, so ordering in the first days of January is the comfortable choice.
We go back to our village for Sankranti. Where should we send the order?
Send it to the place you will be for the festival, not your city flat. Give a landmark and a phone number that will be answered there, and collect the parcel from the transport office in the nearest town.
