Rakhi - A way to reunite not only relationships but also community

Relationships makes every festival bloom with love and laughter. And Rakshabandhan is one such festival which celebrates these relationships in our life. Rakshabandhan calls for a get-together with family members filled with delicious food and savouring of sweets brought by family members. Rakshabandhan celebrates the ethereal bond of love between brother and sister. Brothers and sister pray for each other’s well-being and wish for happiness and goodwill. Sisters visit their brother's home and wish them through Rakhi gifts and wish for their brother's success. Rakhi was popularized by the great poet Rabindranath Tagore after the partition of India and Pakistan where Tagore urged people to tie Rakhi to people in Pakistan and Bangladesh in an attempt to break the societal barriers and form a loving relationship.

Sister's visit their brother come what may, binding the families together in an emotional bond of love and mutual respect. Selecting the perfect gift for your lovely brother is an art. The gifts and the Rakhi which we present to him should not only represent the way we see our brother but also how we wish for him to see us. Every gift should be selected with love and lot of respect. The gift we wish to give to our brother or sister should fulfil their needs. Creative hampers lead to an immortal memory in the life of the receiver.
