Bhai tika falls on the fifth day of Dipawali (Festival of light) known for brothers and sisters marking their special bond by worshipping each other. On this day, sisters pray to Yamraj (God of Death) for a long life and prosperity for their brothers. The ritual involves sisters creating a protective barrier of holy water and blessed oil around their brothers, circumambulating them several times. A special garland made out of the makhani flower (Gomphrena globosa) is placed around the brother's neck as this flower is known for its long life. The tika placed on the forehead of the brother is also unique in that it consists of seven different colours.
