Happy Bhai Dooj 2022: WhatsApp Wishes, messages, greetings for your brother

The five-day-long Diwali celebrations come to end today with Bhai Dooj being observed across the country. Bhai Dooj is a festival where a sister applies tika or tilak on her brother's forehead, performs aarti and wishes for his good health, fortune and prosperity.

Bhai Dooj will be celebrated two days after Diwali, on October 26 and 27. Bhai Phonta, Bhaiya Dooj, Bhau Beej, Bhatra Dwitiya, Bhai Dwitiya, and Bhathru Dwithiya are other names of Bhai Dooj.

Just like rakhi, the underlying significance of this festival too is to highlight a brother's duty to protect his sister. However, with several changes being made to how festivals are celebrated and what they signify, Bhai Dooj is also about the whole family gathering to celebrate togetherness and oneness. 

In the traditional style of observing the festival, sisters first perform aarti of their brothers and apply a red tika on the brother's forehead. This tika signifies a sister's deepest and heartfelt prayers for her brother, wherein she wishes for her brother's long life and happiness.

While sisters perform the tilak act, brothers shower their sisters with love, blessings and also presents to make the day even more special.
