Karwa Chauth is one of the most awaited festivals of the year. Karwa Chauth kind of sets the feeling of the most celebrated festival of India- Diwali. It is like setting up the weather for the festive season.
Karwa Chauth is celebrated for good health and for the longevity of the life of the husband by married Indian women. It is celebrated with tons of enthusiasm. Women getting ready with the prettiest red saree and worshipping Karwa Mata in groups, followed by waiting for moonrise is the ritual followed religiously by them on this day. Married women are often supposed to take fast from sunrise till moonrise, and after that their better half breaks the fast with water, followed by dessert.
Though traditionally only married women used to take up Karwa Chauth for their husbands, but it's nowhere a boundation for men to not worship for the long life of their wives, right? So, now it is very likely to see both husband and wife taking Karwa Chauth. Husbands, reading this better take notes to not only take Karwa Chauth but also gift beautiful sarees to their wives.
Amidst all this, ask every Indian married woman about Karwa Chauth and her description would be gathering, food, music, celebrations, accessories and sarees.
Sarees are one of the most loved pieces of clothing by every other Indian woman. Sarees are loved and appreciated worldwide by Indian women, and when it comes to festivals, everybody loves them a little bit more.
