Industrialist Anand Mahindra has a new video from his unlimited stock. This time, it is a clip of Indians celebrating Onam in Antarctica.
“You cannot prevent Indians from celebrating Onam. Even in Antarctica. Outstanding,” the Chairman of the Mahindra group tweeted with the timelapse video.
A group of men are seen standing of a rock-solid sheet of ice, dressed in warm clothes from head to toe.
Then using hammers and chisels, the group started carving “Pookalam” (colour sketches on the ground similar to rangoli) on the ice. The final result showed “Onam @ Antarctica” carved on ice under the pookalam as the camera pans away.
