His parents used to make garlands for temples. He followed his parents footsteps and has become a garland maker.<br /><br />Suthagar has a small place at Sri Venkadeswara Maha Vishnu temple in Nediamala to make garlands for the temple. He is single, needs more money once he gets married.<br /><br />He feels challenged, when he tries out new styles in garland making. A few like Suthagar likes to become garland makers, because it does not pay much, unless they own the business.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3389996298973250993-3833836697599886541?l=garlandmaker-ha.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>HAnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3389996298973250993.post-77175361632371072402007-04-14T12:57:00.002-07:002008-12-09T20:07:16.250-08:00<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_BL_iCCkYMKA/RiEyP323feI/AAAAAAAABNY/xSuU2BBtDow/s1600-h/1.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5053375505159912930" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_BL_iCCkYMKA/RiEyP323feI/AAAAAAAABNY/xSuU2BBtDow/s400/1.JPG" border="0" /></a>A view of the "Kopuram" of Sri Venkadesa Maha Vishnu temple in Nedimala<br /><div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3389996298973250993-7717536163237107240?l=garlandmaker-ha.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>HAnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3389996298973250993.post-36179826024184048172007-04-14T12:57:00.001-07:002008-12-09T20:07:16.516-08:00<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_BL_iCCkYMKA/RiEyHX23fdI/AAAAAAAABNQ/RGdlSyAmwb8/s1600-h/2.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5053375359131024850" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_BL_iCCkYMKA/RiEyHX23fdI/AAAAAAAABNQ/RGdlSyAmwb8/s400/2.JPG" border="0" /></a>Manoharan Suthagar (25) gets good business on weekends<br /><div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3389996298973250993-3617982602418404817?l=garlandmaker-ha.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>HAnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3389996298973250993.post-60197004313472027602007-04-14T12:56:00.002-07:002008-12-09T20:07:16.636-08:00<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_BL_iCCkYMKA/RiEyBH23fcI/AAAAAAAABNI/3JNz6t3jJXw/s1600-h/3.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5053375251756842434" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_BL_iCCkYMKA/RiEyBH23fcI/AAAAAAAABNI/3JNz6t3jJXw/s400/3.jpg" border="0" /></a>He feels blessed, when his garlands are decorating the idols<br /><div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3389996298973250993-6019700431347202760?l=garlandmaker-ha.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>HAnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3389996298973250993.post-50979669209323257982007-04-14T12:56:00.001-07:002008-12-09T20:07:16.752-08:00<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_BL_iCCkYMKA/RiEx5X23fbI/AAAAAAAABNA/e3Ult_m6Bms/s1600-h/4.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5053375118612856242" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_BL_iCCkYMKA/RiEx5X23fbI/AAAAAAAABNA/e3Ult_m6Bms/s400/4.jpg" border="0" /></a>He learnt garland making from his parents<br /><div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3389996298973250993-5097966920932325798?l=garlandmaker-ha.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>HAnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3389996298973250993.post-31998393766859986462007-04-14T12:55:00.001-07:002008-12-09T20:07:17.252-08:00<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_BL_iCCkYMKA/RiExuX23faI/AAAAAAAABM4/rgKABVQQP6I/s1600-h/5.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5053374929634295202" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_BL_iCCkYMKA/RiExuX23faI/AAAAAAAABM4/rgKABVQQP6I/s400/5.JPG" border="0" /></a>"I need more money, when I get married.
