Bhai Dooj: A timeless tradition celebrating sibling love

A unique festival that celebrates the timeless bond between brothers and sisters.

Bhai Dooj is celebrated with enthusiasm across India. The festival is akin to Raksha Bandhan, in which sisters tie a thread on their brother’s wrists, symbolising the sacred bond between siblings. In Bhai Dooj, the Tika instead represents the sisters’ love and prayers for their brother's long and healthy life. In return, brothers express their affection by showering their sisters with heartfelt Bhai Dooj gifts. This beautiful exchange of love and blessings strengthens the brother-sister bond, creating lasting memories.
