Bhai Dooj wishes in Tamil
Bhai Dooj is a beloved Hindu festival that honours the tender bond between brothers and sisters, rooted in the story of Yamraj and Yamuna and a wish for love and protection. Celebrated across Hindi, Bengali, Marathi, Gujarati and English-speaking families — where it is also called Bhau Beej, Bhatru Dwitiya, Bhai Dwitiya and Yama Dwitiya — it marks the heartfelt finale of the five-day Diwali festivities. Sisters offer tika and prayers for their brothers' wellbeing, brothers promise care and give gifts in return, and many families share warm cards and messages to say what is often left unsaid.
