Auspicious beginning on Akshaya Tritiya

For Vijay Rao who is into events and management, finding a place for marriage ceremony would be an easy task on any given day. It is just doing business at the end of the day. But it ended up being arduous one for his marriage. It is all thanks to the auspiciousness associated with the Akshaya Tritiya that falls today (April 24).

Vijay had to scout for many more places just to ensure that the hall was available. “Not just that. I even ended up paying 50% more compared to any other day. It was actually our parents who insisted that we get married on this particular day,” he said. Akshaya Tritiya, one of the most auspicious days in the Hindu calendar, overshadows the importance of any day in comparison.
