SrI: Dear Sri Narasimhan : MaviLai ThOraNams are hung at the entrance in halls of marriage for the couple to be blessed with lots of Children ( Suprajaa) .It is an ancient custom . Mango Tree is a symbol of Love and Mango Fruits are considered as favorite fruits of DevAs . Certain amount of sacredness associated with Mango Leaves over the years has led to its use Udhaka Saanthi ,PuNYAhAvAchanam for ProkshaNam . There are some medicinal properties for Mango leaves that we wont go into here .
