Hyderabad follows the Telugu Chandramana (lunar, amanta) calendar, in which each month ends on Amavasya and the year begins at Ugadi.
Well-known temples: Birla Mandir (Sri Venkateswara), Chilkur Balaji Temple, Sri Ujjaini Mahankali Temple, Secunderabad, Peddamma Temple, Jubilee Hills.
Bonalu is offered to the Mother Goddess on the Sundays of Ashada month, Bathukamma and Dasara fill the autumn, and the Ganesh immersion at Hussain Sagar on Anant Chaturdashi is one of the largest in India.
Rahu Kalam is a period of about 90 minutes each day that Hindu tradition considers unsuitable for starting new work. It is one of eight equal parts of the daytime, and its position depends on the weekday.
They are other daily periods traditionally avoided for new beginnings. Yamaganda and Gulika are also one eighth of the daytime each, and Durmuhurtam is one or two short muhurtas that vary by weekday.
