About this month

August 2012 in Chennai runs through Shravana and Adhika Bhadrapada masas. Sunrise moves from 5:55 AM on the 1st to 5:58 AM on the 31th, so Rahu Kalam, Abhijit and every other timing shift with it.

Dates follow the tithi at Chennai's sunrise (or the kaal each festival requires), which is why some fall a day earlier than in India.
