  18. Thanks for the information about ugadi. We are living in Coimbatore, Tamilnadu. Our mother tongue is Telugu. We are there for more than 100 years. We are celebrating all Telugu festivals and we are eager to know our whereabouts from Andhra. Our family profession is making hand-loom saris. Any Telugu people from Andhra can contact me to share your views and make a relationship with each other about our Telugu society.
