    Ceremonial Rituals - The Leela Palace Chennai

    Lighting of the Mashaals

    As twilight casts its golden hues across the palace, the resonant call of the Sringa heralds the commencement of an age-old ritual. The ceremonial lighting of the mashaals transforms the surroundings into a spectacle of warmth, elegance, and timeless tradition.

    Set against the palace’s majestic backdrop, musicians present an evocative Carnatic ensemble from a stage that appears to float upon the water. The soulful notes of the violin, the rhythmic cadence of the mridangam, and the gentle resonance of the tambura come together to create an atmosphere of serenity and grandeur.

    Complementing this immersive experience is a thoughtfully curated selection of regional delicacies and refreshments, inviting guests to savour the rich cultural heritage of South India while witnessing this captivating evening ritual.

    We invite you to join us for this unforgettable celebration of music, culture, and royal tradition.
