Happy Rakshabandhan

Raksha Bandhan is a festival that is observed in India and Nepal to celebrate the brother-sister bond. Also known as ‘Rakshabandhanam’ and ‘Rakhi Pournima’, Raksha Bandhan is celebrated in the month of Shravan and has a lot of similarities to ‘Bhai Duj’ as both the festivals are observed to celebrate the brother-sister bond.

To celebrate this beautiful festival, sisters tie a sacred talisman or an amulet, which is popularly called Rakhi, on their brothers’ hand and seek promise that they will always protect them and take care of them. After tying Rakhi, brothers and sisters also exchange gifts and sweets with each other.
