    Ceremonial Rituals - The Leela Palace Chennai

    Lighting of the Mashaals

    As dusk embraces the Chennai skyline, a timeless ritual unfolds at the palace. The blowing of the Sringa indicates it is time to light the mashaals. Our musicians, positioned on a stage seemingly afloat, weave a spellbinding Carnatic symphony. Be transported to another realm by the music, as soulful strains of the violin meld with the beats of the mridangam and the strum of the tambura. 

    We welcome guests to join us for this divine experience.
