Hello everyone!
This kolam is called the 'Sahasra-dala-padmam' or the 1000 petal lotus. It is drawn using 'maa-kolam'or rice paste. This is a very auspicious kolam drawn only in the pooja-room ( like the 'Hridaya-kamalam') and is not to be drawn on the doorstep where everyone will stamp it. I made this in my pooja room on the 'Guru-Poornima' day.
Cheers!
