Questions

Are Telugu festival dates in Cape Town the same as in India?

Most festivals fall on the same day. But the tithi is taken at sunrise in Cape Town, so some festivals fall a day before or after India. This page lists those festivals with both dates.

How is Rahu Kalam worked out for Cape Town?

The daytime in Cape Town, from sunrise to sunset, is split into eight parts, and one of them is Rahu Kalam depending on the weekday. That is why Rahu Kalam changes from city to city and day to day.

Can I see this panchangam on my phone?

Yes. The Teluguvaari Calendar app is free on iPhone and Android, with no ads: the panchangam for your city and an alert before every festival.
