Hello, in our family daughters of two brothers are to be married in nov ‘17 and Feb ‘18. Heard that two ‘mangili pondugal’ cannot be done in the same year. Is that correct or can we do one in nov’17 and second in jan ‘18.

I do not know much but this is done for each marriage separately as far as my knowledge goes.

'Sumangali prArthanai' is done for the ancestors, yearly once. Usually, if a lady passes away as a sumangali, her son(s) have this
ceremony on the day NEXT to her srAddham. We had every year, in this way, for our paternal grandma.
There is no need for two ceremonies in the same year, for the same family.

There is no need for two , but if each want to do for there Daughters weddings can they do
Sometimes due to financial reasons if we are not doing something as per old days, we are also not getting the benefits just like Shrardham done by elders and younger's participate.Thus we loose the benefit because of elders. (Elders means brothers or sisters not ancestors).Sumangali prathana also brings real benefits , if done individually (Yearly once).

Dear Sowmya,
Now a days, sAstrigaLs insist that brothers should do srAddham individually. But, when I was young, all my chithapAs
used to join for our grand parents' srAddham in our sweet home, with their families and after grandma's yearly rituals,
we had the sumangali prArthanai, on the very next day. Even now a few families follow this.
Ram's two elder brother's daughters were married within the span of 6 months and all of us assembled in one brother's
house for the sumangali prArthanai, a few days before the first wedding.
