Actually tamil year will comes in 60 year cycle, thats why our 60 year birthday is very special and auspicious. Since, by that day we are completing all tamil years in our life span. And too if a person is married we celebrate 60'th birthday as Aruvatham Kalyanam. And currently we are in 24'th count of 60 year cycle. And our current Year name is விக்ருதி.
