I have never celebrated Raksha Bandhan!!!
in General Discussions
I do have a brother, 4 years younger than me. Yet, I have never tied a rakhi in his arm, as it's not a big celebration in Kerala (like Holi). But I have seen a few. How do you people celebrate Raksha Bandhan? Is it just like shown in Bollywood films or a bit different?
Let me wish you a happy Raksha bandhan in advance........

Also, do share some nice Rakhi memories, if you have any. :) :)

I got 2 brothers through Boddunan...Ram Chettan and Kannan.
For both my bhayyas, bahana ki tharaf se...a special rakhi. :) :)

    I have no sister. As such, there is no Rakhi to me. Sisters tie a Rakhi on wrist of brother. The brother gives some gift usually money. This is all about the celebration. There are also special food preparations. A special sweets called Ghewar is more common on this occasion.
