Happy Bhai Dooj 2025: The festival of lights, Diwali or Deepawali, is a week-long festival. Right from Dhanteras to Bhai Dooj, celebration brings happiness and harmony among people. The name of the festival comes from two words: "Bhai", which means brother, and "Dooj", meaning the second day after the new moon.The festival of Bhai Dooj celebrates the bond of love between a brother and sister, and it is known as Bhau Beej (Maharashtra), Bhai Phota (West Bengal) and Yam Dwitiya in South India. Different regions have different ways of celebrating this festival, but one common ritual in every region during this festival is that the sister applies tilak/tika on the brother's forehead.According to the traditions, it is believed that sisters apply
tilak for their brother's prosperity and for his long life. And in return, a brother promises to protect his sister and stay with her through every part of life. This festival starts with a sandalwood tilak, prayer and aarti, followed by indulging in mouth-watering sweets and lastly exchanging gifts. In many places it is believed that treating brothers with tasty sweets will add sweetness to their bond.As per mythology, after killing the demon Narakasura, Lord Krishna met his sister Subhadra on this auspicious day, and she applied a tilak on his forehead and treated him with sweets. In return, Lord Krishna blessed her.
This year Bhai Dooj falls on October 23, and the mahurat time for tilak will begin at 01:14 PM and end at 3:29 PM, as per Drink Panchang.In South India, this festival is celebrated as Yama Dwitiya, and this year, the tithi timing for Dwitiya will begin at 08:16 PM on October 22, 2025, and end at 10:46 PM on October 23, 2025.Here are wishes, messages, quotes, greetings and images to share with loved ones on the occasion of Bhai Dooj 2025:
