Sankranthi can be called as festival of harvest. Every year it is celebrated on mid of january. When I remember this festival it reminds of sweets, kites and the cockfighting. If you like to see this intense and wonderful practice of fighting of roasters you must visit Bhimavaram located at Andhrapradesh.
Not only this we can place a bet on this fighting. The speciality here is that you can see a wide variety of roasters. And the fun here it is they are named after their color.
The picture you see of cock is called as nemali. The outcome of the fight is decided not only by strength of the roaster but also by the color. We believe that the color domination can turn the fight within a second.
Here the fighting is done not only for money but also pride of the owner of roaster. Due to this the roasters are raised like their own children to them. They take care of them and see that no one touches it. A roaster ranges from 1000 to 100000 depending upon their breed.
On this auspicious sankranti even the small children walk with roasters on their hand. Everyone must and should watch this fighting and you must visit our Bhimavaram once in your life time just to watch this on sankranti.
