زمینه فرهنگی
Flowers are essential for 'Pūja' (worship). The phrase 'Pūkkaḷ pūkkum' is often associated with the readiness of a garden for a religious festival. Madurai is famous for its Jasmine (Malligai). The blooming of jasmine is a major economic and cultural event in this region. Ancient poets used the blooming of flowers to symbolize the union of lovers. Different flowers blooming meant different stages of love. Songs often use 'Pūkkaḷ pūkkum' to describe the feeling of falling in love for the first time.
