Chhath is one of the most important and widely celebrated Hindu festivals in the Indian states of Bihar, Jharkhand, Uttar Pradesh and the Madhesh region of Nepal. The festival is celebrated just days after Diwali and is one of the most rigorous and challenging festivals observed by Hindus. The first day of Chhath celebrations begins with a holy dip in a water body, where the devotees begin offering their prayers to the Sun God, and is called as Nahay Khay. On this day, devotees who observe the fast, Parvaitin, consume food only one time. Chhath Puja Geet and Folk Songs: From Anuradha Paudwal and Sharda Sinha to Khesari Lal Yadav and Sunil Chhaila Bihari, Here's Your Playlist for Chhath Parv 2019.

The second day of Chhath brings with it the beginning of the strict 36-hour fast, where Parvaitins abstain from eating anything or even drinking water. The fast begins on the second day, after the devotees consume that day’s prasad, after offering it to the Sun God. The 36-hour fast only ends on the fourth day, during sunrise, where the devotees conduct prayer and aarti for the Sun God, and finally, break their fast.

Chhath is said to be one of the most eco-friendly festivals as the celebrations mainly include praying to the Sun God during sunrise as well as sunset by offering water. During this festival, people also stand in water bodies for long periods of time, to offer their prayers, and ask for the long and healthy life of their kids. While it is predominantly observed by women in many families, Chhath is not gender-specific and does not revolve around any kind of idol worship. These factors all make Chhath a one-of-its-kind festival, that is breathtakingly beautiful.
