URGENT HELP NEEDED - Name of Festival
I urgently need to find the proper name of a yearly hindu festival of
atonement. In the surrounding celebrations, holy men walk around with
spikes in their bodies or are suspended with hooks on a rolling platform.
I have witnessed this in Kodaikanal in South India on May 17th 1995.
Thaipusam is a similar festival but seems to take place in Malysia only.
Any help will be greatly appreciated as I have to do titling shots
tomorrow morning...
Thanks!
