Tatavarti Badri, a businessman from Bhimavaram city, arranged a 173-dish meal for his son-in-law Chavala Pridhvigupta (Hyderabad) and daughter Harika at their residence on the occasion of Sankranti.

Speaking to media, the father-in-law said, “My daughter Shree Harika, and son-in-law Chavala Pridhvigupta were not able to join us for the past two years due to Covid-19 restrictions. We were not able to celebrate the festival of Sankranti with our daughter and son-in-law. But this year we celebrated together. My wife has been working for the past four days to prepare all these 173 food items. Today, as it is the auspicious occasion of Sankranti, we have invited our son-in-law.”

Badri's wife Sandhya said, “The meal includes bhaji, puri, bitter gourd, different types of halwas, papads, pickles, deserts, cold drinks and goli soda. All 173 items have been prepared for our son-in-law.”
