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.
