गोलकुंडा बोनालू हिन्दी में पढ़ें

बोनालू एक हिंदू त्योहार है जहां देवी महाकाली की पूजा की जाती है। त्योहार आमतौर पर आषाढ़ मास (जुलाई-अगस्त) के दौरान मनाया जाता है। गोलकुंडा मंदिर में, बोनालू नौ दिनों तक मनाया जाता है। इसलिए इसका नाम गोलकुंडा बोनालु रखा गया है। पहले दिन, एक 'उरागिम्पु' जुलूस होगा, उसके बाद बंजारा दरवाजा और विग्रहपीतम अनुष्ठान से 'बोनम' जुलूस होता है, जिसमें देवताओं की मूर्तियों की स्थापना की जाति है।
