 Raksha bandhan or Rakhi is one of the most auspicious festivals of the country.  This year Rakshabandhan would be celebrated on 7th August 2017. The day symbolizes the deep love and affection that sisters and brothers have for each other in spite of the endless arguments and fights. The ritual of the day where sisters tie 'rakhi' to their brothers is a symbolic gesture of their undying love, faith, and the countless emotions that persists between the sibling duo. On this day, sisters tie decorative thread on the wrist of their brothers, and in return, the brother pledges to protect her against all adversities and challenges in life. A common ritual of brothers showering their loving sisters with special gifts and sweets also makes it one of the most awaited festive occasions. This year, raise the bar and give your sister a thoughtful present that is unique yet special. Ditch the same old box of chocolate and pick one of these creative gifting ideas that are sure to please every sister who is fond of good food.
