Rituals during Tamil Hanuman Jayanti in 2025
The customs of Tamil Hanumath Jayanthi are not the same as those of North India. ‘Vennaikkappu,’ or butter, is applied by the priests on the idols of Lord Hanuman at the Hanuman temples on this day. The butter is said to aid in the healing of Hanuman’s wounds sustained during his battle with Ravana. Additionally, devotees present Lord Hanuman with “Vada Maalai,” a garland composed of vadas.
Additionally, tulsi and betel leaf garlands, known locally as Vetrilai, are offered by devotees. Believers often visit temples to offer prayers to Lord Hanuman. On this day, there are also special abhishekams.
