a s o u t h i n d i a n w e d d i n g 'Cleanse Thy Feet'
The ninth in my series on 'A South Indian Wedding'. 'Cleanse Thy Feet'. This is time when the father-in-law cleanses the bridegrooms feet and applies 'sandanam' (sandalwood paste) and kungumam (a red powder) on the feet. This is done because the 'Maapillai' (Bridegroom) is conisdered the form of the god 'Vishnu' before the 'Kanyaa Dhaanam'. Look forward to the next in the series of 'A South Indan Wedding' A small request - i would like the members to see all the photographs in this series in totality as this is more of a series and a story rather than individual photographs :)
