So how was your bhaiya dooj? Mine went fantastic. I got four brothers, one real and the rest cousins. And we all live in Delhi and communicate on weekly basis, so it was very cool like always.

I am the eldest and the rest are like 10, 7, 5, and 2. And I got a sister too who is also 5.

Tell something about your brother and sister or something interesting that happened on the day.

I had almost forgotten that it was Bhaiya Dooj today. My sister called me from India & blessed me ! That is why I love her so much ! :):)

I have told her to keep my Bajari safe. I shall visit her in November.

Why do we celebrate bhaiya dhooj?
What importance does it hold.

It is tradition in India like Raksha Bandhan to celebrate the relationship of brother and sister. I am not sure but the love between a sister and brother is considered the most pure.

So the sister applies a tika on her brother's forehead and the brother promises to be always by her side.
