Bhai Dooj, a popular festival in India, celebrates the love between siblings. Traditionally, sisters would pray for their brothers to have a long and prosperous life. But now, it has become a celebration of the love and the bond that the siblings share. They do puja, take aarti and put tikka on each other–and then exchange gifts. It is known by different names around the country–Bhau Beej in Goa, Maharashtra, and Karnataka, Bhai Tikka in Nepal, and Bhathru Dwithiya in parts of Bengal.
The festivities of Bhai Dooj are similar to Raksha Bandhan, which also celebrates the relationship between siblings. It falls on the second day of Shukla Paksha in the month of Kartika (between October and November) in the Hindu calendar and is part of the five-day Diwali celebrations every year. It always falls on the fifth day, which is the second day after the Diwali festival.
This year, Bhai Dooj will be celebrated on October 29. So if you want to make your siblings feel special, make sure you buy them the perfect gift for the occasion. Want ideas? We’re here to help!

Coffee Cheers

Phone Cover For Mr. Naughty
If you come to look at it, most brother-sister relationships are similar to Dexter and Dee-Dee’s. Together, they would try out crazy things and be completely wild–always up to some trouble yet they could never be torn apart. This one is for your own Dexter.
Shots For Everyone
For the brother who loves to party, these shot glasses are great. Serve all the tequila there is in the house, add some salt and lime and down it all. The songs will make the Bolly buff in him go crazy.
Doesn’t He Know How To Push Your Buttons
Another mug because one cannot have enough of them. This is for those you who don’t like telling each other you love the other overtly. This is for the most annoying brother in the world who steals the remote, sometimes takes mom and dad’s side and is always teasing you about something or the other.
Travel Life
If your brother travels a lot for work or for leisure, he needs a passport cover. This one says ‘Musafir Hoon Yaaron’ and is the perfect tribute to yesteryear Bollywood. A love for RD Burman and for globetrotting is a perfect combination. Your bro will totes use it every time he flies off.

On The Reading List
It all started with Solnit’s lead essay ‘Men Explain Things To Me’ that went viral in 2008. The essay highlighted that in male culture women are talked down to–sometimes in the nicest way possible and when it comes to things they excel at. Similarly, other essays in the book also have a feminist voice that is loud and clear, and supported by hard facts. Honestly, if your sister is a voracious reader, this one deserves a place on her bookshelf.
