Makar Sankranti shows up quietly, almost politely, with clearer skies and that subtle feeling that winter is finally loosening its grip. Celebrated across India in many forms, Pongal in the south, Uttarayan in the west, it marks the Sun’s move into Capricorn and the start of longer, brighter days. In 2026, the festival falls tomorrow, January 14. For many families, it means kites in the sky, something sweet on the plate and a lot of casual catching up. While the rituals stay the same, the way we pass on greetings has changed. A short WhatsApp status video has become an easy, thoughtful way to say “I’m thinking of you,” even from far away.
