Contexto cultural
Keralites take great pride in the 'greenery' of their state. 'Shuddhavayu' is often used in political and social slogans to protect the environment and forests. In Ayurvedic medicine, breathing 'Shuddhavayu' is considered the first step to healing. Many treatment centers are located in forests or hills for this reason. The 'Naalukettu' (traditional home) design focuses on the 'Aankanam' (central courtyard) to circulate air, ensuring the house always has 'Shuddhavayu'. In cities like Kochi, 'Shuddhavayu' has become a topic of concern due to waste plant fires and traffic, leading to a rise in indoor air purifiers.

Don't say 'Clean Wind'
Avoid saying 'Vruthiyulla Kaattu'. It sounds like the wind took a bath!
