Mangalore: For people in coastal Karnataka, Sri Krishna Janmashtami is not a mere festival of the birth of Lord Krishna, but a festival to share joy with lots of fun and entertainment.

Janmashtami for Mangaloreans is incomplete without delicacies like “Kadabu”, “Ladus”, “Panchakajaya”, “Chakulis” and of course the other festivities  Mosaru Kudike and Hulivesha.

Mosaru Kudike, is a festival similar to “Dahi Handi'” celebrated in Maharashtra and other parts of North India.

Every street in the city will be geared up to make the festival more ritualistic and also entertaining. The famous Udupi Sri Krishna temple is all set to celebrate with religious gaiety and pomp the Sri Krishna Janmashtami and Vittal Pindi (Sri Krishna Leelolstav celebrations) which will be held from August 29. People throng to Udupi just to get the glimpse and the blessing of the “Kdagolu Krishana”.
