THRISSUR: With the thunderous blows and palatable fireworks spreading patterns in the sky, the traditional 'Vedikattu' in Thrissur Pooram ended fulfilling the thousands crowded there. The festival is slowly entering “Upacharam Chollal” which will be the concluding phase of this year's exciting gala in Thrissur.

As part of “Pakal Pooram”, the Paramekavu section started their procession from Manikantan Pandal while the Thiruvambady section will start theirs from Naykanal Pandal. Later in the noon, another round of fireworks will gleam the sky with thundering blows putting curtains to yet another year of festive reveling.

Last year, rain played the spoiled sport as the fireworks couldn't bill the expectation. All the downfalls were rectified this time as it was one enthralling watch as fireworks recurred in skys with ears going mute after some time amidst the sounds and lights forming a trance.

The Kudamattom in Thekkinkadu maidan yesterday was the largest ever participation recorded which was famed also for the parasol of Argentinian superstar Lionel Messi.
