The festival of lights culminates with Bhai Dooj, a festival that commemorates the bond between brothers and sisters. The festival is celebrated two days after Diwali. On Bhai Dooj, sisters apply tilak or tika (vermilion) on the foreheads of their brothers. Sisters also keep fast and prepare delicious food items for their brother and eat after feeding their brothers.
On this auspicious day, sisters pray to God for the longevity, well-being and prosperity of their beloved brother. They sweeten their mouths with sweets and in return sisters are lavished with gifts from their brother. The festival is celebrated on the very last day of the five days long Diwali. According to the Gregorian calendar, the festival occurs on the second day of the Shukla Paksha in the Hindu month of Kartik which generally falls between October and November.
