Aadi Perukku 2021 in India is on Tuesday, 3 August 2021. Each date is computed from that country’s main city’s own sunrise.

Why this date?

Vakya: Tue 3 Aug · Aadi 18
Thithiதிதி: The lunar day: the time the Moon takes to gain 12° on the Sun. A lunar month has 30.: Dasami (until 2:06 pm)
Star: Rohini (until 3:14 am (next day))

Thirukanitha: Mon 2 Aug · Aadi 18

The two methods place the thithi or star boundary differently, so the day moves. Follow your temple or family.
