Bhai Dooj

Bhai Dooj is also known as Bhai Tij, Bhai or Bhaiya Phota, Bhau-Beej, Bhatri Ditya, Bhathru Dwithiya, or Yamadwitheya. It is mostly celebrated in West Bengal, Bihar, and Maharashtra. It is celebrated two days after Diwali in the month of Kartik as per the Hindu calendar. This festival is celebrated to show the bond of affection between brother and sister. It is believed that every brother who gets a meal and a Tilak or Tika on this day from his sister will never go to hell.
