Karwa Chauth or Karva Chauth, a Hindu festival, celebrates a woman's devotion towards her husband. The day is observed mostly in northern parts of India when a married woman or a girl of marriageable age observe a day-long nirjala fast (without food or water) for the safety and long life of their husbands. Unmarried women fast on the day for their prospective grooms. Women break the fast only after offering prayers to the moon. Women adorn themselves in beautiful clothes and apply henna on their hands. They are also given gifts by their mothers-in-law and parents.
