ORIGIN AND SIGNIFICANCE
Celebrated mostly by North
Indians, the event of Karwa Chauth is growing bigger with each
passing day. Along with traditional items such as henna, beauty
products and fashionable clothes, the demand of special eateries
are also gearing up. Nowadays, Karwa Chauth is more of fun than
a serious festival.
