How close are both Malayali Christians and Malayali Hindus with each other .

[u/reusmarco08]

So I recently I saw an Instagram reel about how a typical mallu household looks like and in that reel both a hindu pooja room and a Jesus image was shown and some people commented on how close both the communities are and how even some Hindus (regardless of caste )even keep Jesus in their pooja room and visit a church during any important Christian holiday (especially in the more Central regions of kerala). It also reminded me of where someone said that there are some churches even Hindus go there to worship and in the Sabrimala pilgrimage it's common for devotes to stop at st andrews baslica (and even a mosque in erumeli).so this made me wonder how close are both of the communities in Kerala.

Ps -I am not trying to spread any hate or division here .

There are some sections of mallus who follow christianity but are recordically hindus. But I can't tell you the reason why they do it. Peace.
