Devotees Exchanging Rotis - Rottela Panduga

Описание: Bara Shaheed Dargah is one of the well-known Dargahs in Nellore. According to the legend, the mortal remains of the 12 Muslim martyrs are buried here. These soldiers fought against the British but lost their lives in the battle. Thus, the shrine of the "12 martyrs" is named as 'Bara Shaheed Dargah'. 'Bara' means twelve and 'Shaheed' means martyrs.

Another legend is about the beginning of the Roti Festival, once the wife of the Nawab of this region was very ill. None of the doctors (vaidyas) were able to cure her disease. So, the Nawab announces that anyone who suggests a proper medicine will be rewarded.

Meanwhile, a washerman couple comes to Bara Shaheed Dargah and sees an ill woman praying in the shrine. They decide to return after their prayers but it gets dark. So, they stay on the banks of a tank near the Dargah. Next morning they hear about the Nawab's announcement and realise that the ill woman in Dargah was none other than Nawab's wife. They visit the Nawab and suggests him to take the soil from the Dargah and apply it on his wife's forehead. The Nawab follows their instructions and soon his wife gets cured. As a goodwill gesture, he exchanges roti with the devotees in the Dargah. This is said to be the beginning of Rotiyaan-ki-eid in Bara Shaheed Dargah.
