Jallikattu or sallikattu is commonly practised in the state of Tamil Nadu in India as a part of Pongal celebrations on the day of Pongal. It is generally occurs in January.

It was commonly played by the people of Ayar tribes who lived in the ‘Mullai’ geographical region of the ancient Tamizh Nadu. After being famous it became a platform for display of braveness and courage and gradually some prize money was introduced to encourage the participants. 

Jallikattu is a traditional event of Tamil Nadu in which a bull is released into a crowd of people. In the same place, participants attempt to catch the big hump of the bull with both arms and hang on to it while the bull attempts to escape. These bulls are in the breeds of the Pulikulam or Kangayam, a special breed in Tamil Nadu. 

Bulls enter the competition area through a gate called the vadi vasal. Participants are most probably try to hold the hump of the bull for as long as possible and attempt to bring the bull to a stop. In some cases, participants must ride long enough to remove flags on the bull's horns. But there is some fixed format of the competition. 

There are various categories of Jallikattu such as - 

1. Vadi manjuviraṭṭu: This is the most common category of jallikattu. 

2. Vēli viraṭṭu: In this variant the bull is directly released into open ground.

3. Vaṭam manjuviraṭṭu: In this category, the bull is tied with a 15 metre rope. 

In some versions, contestants must either hold the bull's hump for 30 seconds or for 15 metre or 49 ft. Typically, participants must only hold onto the bull's hump. In some variations, they are disqualified if they hold onto the bull's neck, horns or tail. If the contestant is thrown by the bull or falls, they lose the game. Some variations only allow for one contestant. If two contestants grab the hump, then neither person wins the game.
