On this day, Malayalis wake up early in the morning to perform the ritual of Vishu Kani, the sighting of an array of auspicious items such as rice, fruits, vegetables, flowers, gold, and coins, placed in front of a mirror. It is believed to bring prosperity and good luck for the coming year. As part of Vishu Kaineetam, elders of the house give money and gifts to younger ones.
