Pongal Festival celebrated by agrarian communities does not end with making tasty pongal, worship and sharing pongal greetings and wishes. Several Indian farming communities also have a small dairy with anywhere between one and ten cows (sometime even more) and bulls. These rural dwellers observe the day after Pongal Festival as Maatu (cow in Tamil language) Pongal to honor cows and bulls which provide them with a steady stream of income all through the year. For this special occasion, cows and bulls are bathed and groomed in the early hours of the morning in a common village water body /temple tank. A special rangoli is created for the day with aloe vera stuck into a heap of cow dung. Five holes are made in the dung to be filled with milk, cottonseed extract, gooseberry pulp, turmeric paste and pongal prepared on the day. A square is drawn around this using brick powder and a basket covers the dung. Other rangoli patterns are drawn using rice powder or color powder beyond the square. It is a tradition for cows and bulls along with the members of the household to cross over this arrangement (after removing the basket).Pongal prepared on this day is fed to the cows and bulls and their mouths washed with water. Several customary worship rituals accompany the celebration. Cows and bulls are taken around the town and their heads washed in the village water body with gingili oil, gooseberry pulp and soap nut powder (shikakai) accompanied by the Pongal chant,
