Woman to spend whole life single only for ‘Ramu’
Tamil Nadu, Indian: Salvarani Kanagarasu, a Tamil Nadu woman in Indian, has decided to spend the whole life without getting married only for taking care of ‘Ramu’.
Every year ‘Ramu’, a bull, takes part in Jallikaatu. Jallikaatu is a traditional century-old festival which takes place every year in late January, reports BBC Bangla.
Jallikaatu could be referred to as bull taming event typically practiced in Tamil Nadu as a part of Pongal celebrations on Mattu Pongal day, third day of the four-day Pongal festival.
The term 'jallikattu' is derived from the tamil words 'jalli' and 'kattu'.
Jalli refers to gold or silver coins. Kattu means 'tied'. Therefore, combined together it refers to coins being tied to the bulls' horns, which is considered the prize for whoever tames the bull. The bull that wins is used to service numerous cows preserving the native breed.
It is renowned as an ancient 'sport', believed to have been practised some 2500 years ago. It is controversial because the sport often results in major injuries and even deaths.
Salvarani Kanagarasu is now in 48. The name of her pet bull is ‘Ramu’. ‘Ramu’ has won Jallikaatu crown five times. Some people call ‘Ramu’ a legendary bull.
