Bhai Dooj(भाई दूज) or Bhaiya Dooj is the celebration of brotherhood and sisterhood at the end of the Diwali festival in India. It is the second time after Raksha Bandhan that brothers and sisters get to renew and revive their relationships.
Other names for Bhai dooj are Yama Dwitiya, Bhai Phonta, Bhau Beej, Bhatra Dwitiya, and Bhai Tika in Nepal.
After Dusshera, Diwali, and Dhanteras, it is time for the conclusive Bhai Dooj. One of the imminent festivals is Chhath.
Yamraj(God of Death) and the Yamuna are the bro-sis duo worshipped on this day and are the root of the festival.
The festival includes brothers Tilak/Tika and Aarti by a sister in return for blessings and gifts. Sisters wish for the success and happiness of bros, while brothers promise always to protect their sisters. The festivals are celebrated with high enthusiasm and zest among people of all ages in India.

Bhai Dooj will be celebrated on Sunday, 3 November 2024, after Diwali.
The auspicious timing(शुभ मुहूर्त ) for Bhai Dooj Tilak is 1:17 to 3:38 PM.
Background and Significance भैया दूज
As per mythology, Yamaraj and the Yamuna, the children of the Sun god(Surya Dev), had a memorable bother sister bond. Despite being deprived of Mother Sandhya’s love, the brother-sister pair had affection and care for each other.
It is for this reason that Yamaraj visited the Yamuna on Yama Dwitiya, where she put on tilak and Mala on her brother, Yamaraj. It has since been celebrated as Bhai Dooj, and it is also believed that a brother who shares gifts with his sisters won’t die on this day. Some believe the folklore includes Krishna and Subhadra in similar roles.
Bhai dooj is a celebration of the bond between a bro and a sister after Diwali. On this day, a sister prays for her well-being and the long life of her bro, and a brother vows to always be there for his sister, along with the exchange of gifts.
Both Bhai dooj and Rakhi have a similar sense of brother-sister bonding; however, the only difference between the two is the date of occurrence. Besides that, there is a silken thread that a sister ties on the bro’s wrist, puts a tika on his forehead, and prays for his wellbeing, and the brother vows to be there whenever she needs him.
