It may seem a simple question. But it is not the case.
In Kerala, Hindus calculate their birthday every year, the same way we calculate Srikrishna Jayanthi or Mahasivarathri.
i.e. each year, our birthday differs and most probable times, it will never be on our date of birth.
We calculate our birthday on the basis of Malayalam calender and born star. What about you?

How do you calculate your birthday every year...Is it just your date of birth?

Yes I too got it successfully but that is too common to take notice of.
In this year 2012 everyone will celebrate his or her birthday on the day of birth.


Not a new thing Isha in year 2011 also everyone celebrated their birthdays except those who were born on 29th Feb but they celebrated on 28th Feb. :laugh:
My birth time is near about 5:00 PM and now calculate.

Yes..you are attam....
Is it your photo Ram?
I find a resemblance of that friend with you.....not slim....a little dark.....ha ha
But can't tell much about that people :)
Yet, you are a silent person....not angry or quarrels as normal man. Am I right? :)

I am so glad to read your conclusion about normal man. You mean normal men are those who quarrel a lot? Thanks God I am not normal. :laugh:
Sunil....again you changed your profile picture :woohoo:

Normally, men have less patience than women. Even if he can't find a thing wrongly placed anywhere by him, he will shout at his wife. Isn't it? Also, men get angry easily...(lose his temper suddenly). But Ram is not like that :cheer: He is like our Ram of Ramayan, remains silent.
Ram..

@ Sandya You are right and yes the profile picture is of mine.

Yes...you are Atham born...
My brother-in-law's newborn boy is also Attam :)
Our onam celebrations starts with attam of first month-Chingam and ends on the 10th day...Thiruvonam star....
Hence it is known as Thiruvonam/onam
Atham is good or bad? discuss some more about it,

Of course not a bad one. But I don't know much about it since I know only a few people having this star.

Actually all stars are good. Depending upon the time of birth, his luck, unluck and fate changes

Thank you.
Who is going to post his DOB now???? Be fast....
We use Gregorian calendar, which is simple and easy to remember. Being bengali, our new year is called "Akshay Titiya". So, date of birth gets changed.

So, your year begins on Akshaya thritiya according to Bengali calender?....(April last)
