Like the months above, there are twenty seven [[nakshatra|stars]] starting from Aswati ([[Ashvini|Ashvinī]] in Sanskrit) and ending in [[Revati (nakshatra)|Revatī]]. The 365 days of the year are divided into groups of fourteen days called ''Ñattuvela'' ({{lang|ml|ഞാറ്റുവേല}}), each one bearing the name of a star.
