Onam is the most popular festival in Kerala and is considered as state festival of Kerala. Onam legend is connected to a colorful chapter of Hindu mythology of Dasavatar.Lord Vishnu has taken Vamana avatar to bless his devotee Mahabali. Even though Mahabali was a damon king he was extreme devotee of lord Vishnu and Ruled his kingdom with the principle of honesty and truth. The above Karma earned lot of blessings from the fate and he attained the the same quality of King of heaven. The king of heaven begged to maha Vishnu to protect him and heaven from falling it to the demons. So lord Vishnu taken the avatar as vamana and pushed him into pathalam. He blessed Mahabali and promised him the Indra position after the current Indra. He also allowed him to visit his kingdom once in a year on thiruvonam star of chingam.

Not even little bit lying”
