The story, mission, and people behind Kairali Samajam Hosur.
On 9th June 1996, a passionate group of Malayalees residing in Hosur came together in a small hall at Lakshmi Nagar (Lakshmidevi Nagar). United by a longing for their native roots, language, and cultural traditions, they resolved to establish Kairali Samajam Hosur (Regd. No. 103/2000) — creating an enduring second home for Malayali families in and around Hosur.
Starting with around 50 dedicated founding members, the Samajam has grown into a vibrant institution of over 1,000 active member families across Hosur, bridging multiple generations through culture, service, and fellowship.
"Wherever a Malayali family stands together, that ground becomes Kerala."
Formed on June 9, 1996. The Samajam acquired its own land at Kairali Nagar (Plot 59 & 60, Krishnagiri Rd) and Alasnatham Rd, later erecting a 400-seat Mini Auditorium.
The first official Onam celebration on Sept 1, 1998, sponsored by 15 founding office bearers donating ₹1,000 each, beginning our annual Onasadhya and Ghoshayathra traditions.
During Kerala CM Sri. E. K. Nayanar's visit to Hosur, Samajam petitioned for direct transit. KSRTC introduced 4 buses via Hosur, followed by the Hosur–Kollam express bus service.
