Karva Chauth is a traditional Hindu festival where married women fast from sunrise to moonrise for the well-being and long life of their husbands.
Rooted in Indian culture, Karva Chauth highlights the deep bond of love, trust, and devotion between married couples.
Women dress in beautiful sarees or traditional attire, apply mehndi, and perform puja. They break their fast after seeing the moon through a sieve.
Karva Chauth symbolizes dedication and sacrifice. It’s also believed to bring prosperity, protection, and blessings for a long-lasting marriage.

Modern couples celebrate Karva Chauth together, with some men joining in the fast to show their support and love.
Karva Chauth also fosters a sense of community, as women come together to celebrate and perform rituals, creating a bond of shared tradition.
