Rakhi – The Thread of Love and Care

Those people who have brothers and sisters are really blessed because they have a best friend from childhood itself and they don’t have to search for a best friend. You are also lucky if you have brothers and sisters. And being an Indian, our most special day therefore is Raksha Bandhan, falling in the monsoon months because it is a day dedicated to the love and care between a brother and a sister. A sister’s careful tying of rakhi thread makes sure that her brother can face the world with bravery, win the challenges, and remain happy.


The thread of rakhi has changed over time but the love and affection with which a sister ties a rakhi is still the same. We are really flooded with many options of rakhi while searching for the best rakhi for our brothers. Mauli rakhi, precious rakhi, gold rakhi, pearl rakhi, peacock rakhi, bracelet rakhi, and floral rakhi, are just to name a few. It depends on your liking and of course your wallet that would decide the type of rakhi for your brother. But, I know when it is about brothers who protect us against all odds, we love to splurge all our bank balance on him.



Now, when your shopping of rakhi thread is over, you must be surfing for a nice gift for your brother. In this area, I would suggest you to surf various websites and hit on “gift for men” segments. Options like bracelet, perfumes, coffee mugs, personalized T-shirts, shaving kit, laptop skin, mobile cover, leather wallet, etc. are a few things that would make your brother happiest for sure. But don’t forget to carry rakhi with sweets because without sweets the festival cannot be over. His favorite sweets like Kaju Katli, Kaju Barfi, Kaju Roll, Rasgulla, or a Laddoo cannot be given a miss.
