In 436 days
What this day is
Two days after Diwali, sisters mark their brothers' foreheads with tilak and pray for their long life. The sibling bond closes the festival week, as Yamuna once honored her brother Yama.
How families observe it at home
Sisters do tilak and aarti for brothers and feed them a meal or sweets; brothers give gifts in return. Like Raksha Bandhan, diaspora families keep it over video calls when distance demands. Cousins count fully.
