Karwa Chauth is celebrated with great devotion across several North Indian states, including Delhi, Punjab, Haryana, Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh.

Women break their fast after moon sighting by offering water to the moon and drinking water offered by their husbands.

The Karwa Chauth fast begins before sunrise with sargi, a pre-dawn meal traditionally prepared by the mother-in-law.

A well-planned first Karwa Chauth fast can make the day more comfortable and spiritually fulfilling.

The festival is marked by several rituals and food traditions that have been passed down through generations.

Traditionally, the fast begins before sunrise with sargi - a pre-dawn meal consisting of foods such as fruits, nuts, pheni (a type of vermicelli) and mathri (a savoury snack).

Many people struggle to restore the shine of old silver and copper vessels, even after cleaning them thoroughly.

Karwa Chauth fast on October twenty ninth is a waterless fast for married women praying for their husbands health and longevity.
