"Karva Chauth" is observed on the fourth day of the Kartik month in the Hindu calendar. The wife fasts from sunrise to moonrise and offers prayers for her husband's long life and well-being. She breaks her fast only after staring through a sieve at the rising moon and then at her spouse. Women's excitement and joy at this time is incredibly captivating. A day or two before the fast, preparations get underway. The word "Karva" means "pot," while the word "Chauth" means "fourth day." It means to offer the moon "Aarya" on the chautha of the month in a karwa.
This fast is a representation of Indian women's commitment, loyalty, and dedication.
There's no finer ensemble for a custom this old than a saree. The timeless silhouette of a saree reflects the essence of Indian culture. Vibrant sarees, in rich fabrics adorned with intricate embroidery are the perfect choice for these festivities.
