Sir,
I have a doubt about distant cousins dying in a foreign country whom we never met, only heard about them through elders.
Are we to follow one year " Thukkam" and refrain from doing all Pandigaigal .
Kindly let me know what our Scriptures say about this?
Thanks in Advance

Sir,
There is no question of intimacy with the relationship to keep the theetu,
because, some time there may be no introduction with a son and a father till the death of any one.
So, we should maintain the theetu according to blood relationship as per shastra if we like or dislike.
