Just 14 kilometres away from Madurai in Tamil Nadu, locals are preparing to defy the Jallikattu ban imposed by the Supreme Court. Though women do not watch Jallikattu, 30-year-old Shalini fiercely propagates it as part of Pongal festivities. "This year, Jallikattu will happen. We have patiently waited for last two years. We believe Jallikattu is important to ward away evil and ensure strong men and bulls," she says.
