On October 17, the country of festivals, India, will celebrate Karva Chauth. Soon after Navratri ends, get ready for Bollywood's favourite romantic festival, Karva Chauth to take place. It will see married women fast for their husbands' long life. The one-day festival is primarily celebrated by Hindu women from North-India four days after Purnima in the month of Kartika. As per the Gregorian calendar, the dates differ every year. The rituals include married women keeping a no-water fast for their husbands. They can only break their fast after sunset on seeing the moon through a sieve. Immediately after that, their husbands are supposed to give them water and first morsel of food. However, husbands are also supposed to gift their wives something special on this day.

If you are confused about what to gift your wife this Karva Chauth, here are a few present ideas that you can buy your wife:

Salon or Spa Voucher: After a whole day of not eating food and drinking water for you, she could really use a day at her favourite spa or salon. Book her an appointment with a good masseuse or with her favourite nail salon, choose what she likes.

A Fancy Meal: If she is a foodie, gift her a fancy meal. Probably take her to the place she always wanted to go.

Fitness Equipment: For a fitness freak wife who is always worried about her weight and exercise schedules, you can buy something like a fitness band. You can also gift her the exercise equipment she always wanted to buy.

A Short Getaway: Give her some fun time with just the two of you alone. Escape to a nearby destination along with her in the coming weekend and spend some quality time.

Well, whatever you gift her, it is important that make the day special for her. If she is taking so many efforts for you, why not keep a fast along with her, Bollywood style? She will surely love it. Go ahead and try to make the day as comfortable for her even if it requires keeping your phones aside for a day.
