About Bhaiya Dooj

Bhaiya Dooj is the final, fifth day of the Diwali festival, dedicated to the sacred bond between brothers and sisters.

It is rooted in the legendary meeting between Lord Yama (God of Death) and his sister Yamuna.

Vrat Vidhi & Fasting Rules

Sisters apply a protective Tilak on their brother's forehead and feast together.

Step-by-Step Fasting Procedures:
