Just as Valentine's Day is popular among lovebirds, Karwa Chauth is very special for the ones who are married. ‘Karwa’ means earthen pot and ‘Chauth’ signifies four. It comes on the fourth day of the Hindu Kartik month.

A Glimpse On The Rituals Of Karwa Chauth

Karwa Chauth celebrates love and affection between husband and wife. Wives observe Nirjala Vrat (Fast without even water) and pray for the long life of their husband. Mother-in-law offers Sargi (food) to their daughters-in-law, which is taken early morning before sunrise. In exchange, Baya (gift) is offered to mother-in-law by the family of daughter-in-law.
