Ugadi wordings in Telugu and Kannada, Gudi Padwa wordings in Marathi, so the greeting matches the household.
The six shadruchulu of the pachadi and the five parts of a gudi, so the message can be specific.
Separate family, friends, work and caption wordings instead of one line stretched across all four.
They fall on the same tithi, Chaitra shukla pratipada, and both mark the luni-solar new year, but the customs differ. Telugu and Kannada households make Ugadi Pachadi and attend the Panchanga Sravanam; Marathi households raise a gudi at the doorway and eat shrikhand-puri or puran poli.
Neem flowers for bitterness, jaggery for sweetness, raw mango for tang, tamarind for sourness, salt for fear and green chilli or pepper for anger. Eating all six in one preparation is a reminder that the year will bring every one of those experiences.
A long bamboo pole with bright silk or khan cloth tied at the top, neem and mango leaves, a gathi garland of sugar crystals, and an inverted copper or silver kalash on the tip. It is raised at a door or window, usually to the right of the entrance, on the morning of the festival.
Ugadi comes from yuga and adi — the beginning of an age. The almanac names each new year after one of a repeating cycle of sixty samvatsaras, and that name is announced during the Panchanga Sravanam reading on the day itself.
