The Hindu community of the nation is celebrating Bhai Dooj 2016 on November 1. Also known as Bhai Tika or Bhai Phonta, Bhai Dooj is a festival for brothers and sisters.
Much like Raksha Bandhan, Bhai Dooj comprises rituals where the sister applies a tika on her brother's forehead, praying for his well being. And in return, the brother offers gifts to the sister.
This festival celebrates the bond between a brother and a sister. It also signifies the sister's good wishes for her brother and the latter's promise to protect her in all circumstances. Apart from the rituals and exchanging of gifts, siblings also exchange messages and wishes.
Many a times people cannot celebrate Bhai Dooj due to distance. Brothers and sisters wish each other through messages and greetings over mobile phone.
Check out some of the best messages and greetings that brothers and sisters can share on Bhai Dooj 2016:
