It will be nothing wrong Rakhi Bazaar is the life and soul of the festive celebration of Raksha Bandhan. We all know that Raksha Bandhan falls every year on the full-moon night of the Shravan month of the Hindu calendar. However, the incitement related to it begins almost a month before. This makes it seem like a month-long festive season. The fervor associated with this festival can be easily observed in every locality of India.

The affluent and lavish rakhi bazaar continue to augment the exhilaration of Raksha Bandhan with every passing day. All over the country the sisters become well-occupied with the task of shopping for Rakhis and attractive gift hampers to send to their brothers.
