Shilpa Shetty Gives Fans A Glimpse Of Her Daughter Samisha Performing Bhai Dooj Ritual

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India]: As the nation celebrates Bhai Dooj on Sunday, B-town celebs are also joining in the festivities.


Shilpa Shetty took to Instagram to give fans a sweet glimpse of her Bhai Dooj celebrations, featuring her two kids, Viaan and Samisha.


In the pictures shared by Shilpa, little Samisha is seen performing the traditional Bhai Dooj ritual for her brother Viaan. The last picture, was special as it showed the kids cutely hugging each other.


Bhai Dooj is known by several names as Bhai Dooj, Bhau Bij, and Bhai Beej, and in Maharashtra, this day is celebrated as Bhai Tika. This day is celebrated as Bhai Phonta in Bengal.


In the southern regions of India, particularly in Karnataka and Telangana, Bhai Dooj is celebrated as Yama Dwitiya.


The mythology behind this celebration is that Goddess Yamuna fed her brother Yamraj at her own home on the day of Kartik Dwitiya. Since then, this day has been recognised and celebrated as Yama Dwitiya.


Sisters apply tilak to their brother’s foreheads and follow other rituals such as fasting and puja on this day to wish them a long and prosperous life. In return, brothers give their sisters a gift and promise to always protect them. Raksha Bandhan and Bhai Dooj are quite similar up to an extent, however, on Bhai Dooj, sisters do not tie a thread or Rakhi on the wrists of their brothers like they do on Raksha Bandhan.


Numerous ancient Hindu scriptures have mentioned Bhai Dooj as a celebration of bonding and eternal love between brothers and sisters.
