Close to the 1000 Light Mosque is the starting pouint of the 7 Moharam juloos of Chennai a very long procession hand matam on the way and some blade matam but no head cutting or kamazani this juloos ends with tabaruk being served at the ending point which is a Tamil municipal school.

It rained quite a bit and because Mesaq had given me an umbrella I managed to keep my camera intact and shot the entire juloos barefeet.

It was to shoot this juloos I arrived the night before to Chennai and shot the 6 Moharam juloos too.

This juloos passes through some posh areas of Chennai.
