Raksha Bandhan, best defined as an eternal ritual of love signifies the true essence of the brother-sister relationship. This festival gives us a reason to be re-united with our loved siblings and reminisce on the special moments spent in each others' company. The small screen is replete with lots of loving brother-sister duos who leave us teary eyed with their riveting performances. Often, we seek a reflection of their love, concern, arguments and possessiveness in our own lives. So, on the jubilant occasion of Rakhi, Jagdish and Sugna from Balika Vadhu celebrate this auspicious occasion with us at ZoOmtake a look!
In which we visit Koyel Didi, our friend KT's sister on the auspicious day of Rakshabandhan.Relationships are the essence of celebration and it holds true for any Indian festival. Each festival brings the family together which calls for a total festive environment. Raksha Bandhan is a celebration of one such relation - the relation of a brother and a sister. The relation is no where so celebrated as in India. Raksha Bandhan is a festival which celebrates the bond of affection between brothers and sisters. It is a day when the siblings pray for each others' well being and wish for each others' happiness and goodwill.
