It is the beginning of a new year in the Hindu calender, called Ugadi or Yugadi and this year is called "Vijaya nama Samvatsara". A mixture essentially made of jaggery and neem flowers and buds along with other ingredients is shared among the members of the family, friends and neighborhood wishing that may the person receiving it take joys and sorrows of life with equanimity in the coming year. A beautiful thought in deed. Happy Ugadi! :)
