The festive season has already begun and we are all set to celebrate the most important festival of married woman, Karwa Chauth. With Karwa Chauth around the corner, women are prepping up for their special day with shopping for their outfit, applying mehendi and gorging lots of food as they have to keep a fast for the long-life of their partners. This year, with the ongoing pandemic, the festival becomes even more important for the couples to pray for the healthy and long life of their partners. Let’s see how the Yeh Hai Mohabbatein couple, Divyanka Tripathi Dahiya and Vivek Dahiya are planning to celebrate Karwa Chauth this year.

Last year on Karwa Chauth, Divyanka Tripathi Dahiya had looked like a vision in red and golden, while Vivek Dahiya had complemented her perfectly in black. The duo had posted dreamy pictures from their Karwa Chauth celebrations and had made us shed a few happy tears! While the missus had captioned the picture as “Our Karwachauth #TwoMoonNight”, the mister had written, “Every year I ask her not to go through the trouble but she won’t listen. In barter, I’m left with no choice but to listen to her the entire year! #KarwaChauthSpecial #DivekForever #LoveExtendedToInstaFamily.”
With Karwa Chauth around the corner, Divyanka Tripathi Dahiya, in an interview with the Hindustan Times, revealed her plans for celebrating the festival for the fourth time post-wedding. She said, “This year, Vivek is taking me shopping during the day, as for a change I’m not working today. In the evening, we will go on a moon-hunting drive, do the pooja and later, hopefully, go to a restaurant for dinner.” Speaking about the relevance of Karwa Chauth in 2020, Divyanka continued, “The reason behind Karva chauth fast is more relevant today, looking at the horrors Covid-19 has caused. If the fast really works the way they say, I am going keep it for our entire family and loved ones this year. Yes, the festive spirits is lower this year, especially because we can’t have parties or get-togethers the way we used to. People are being cautious and that’s good for everyone.”
Hailing from a family where Karwa Chauth is not celebrated and staying in a nuclear setup post-marriage with Vivek Dahiya, Divyanka Tripathi Dahiya revealed that she doesn’t have complete knowledge about the rituals. Divyanka elaborated, “Being in a nuclear setup, with no elders to guide, many working women have tweaked the rituals according to convenience and understanding. I can only speak for myself. My family in Bhopal didn’t celebrate the festival, so I’m barely aware about the exact customs. I don’t do all the poojas accurately, owing to the work schedule and lack of knowledge. In fact, my process is more driven by what I’ve done while acting during Karva chauth sequences in my TV shows. I’m fine with it as long as I feel I have done my bit with complete conviction.” (Also Read: 9 New Celebrity Brides, Who Will Be Observing Their First 'Karwa Chauth' For Their 'Pati Parmeshwar')

Karwa Chauth 2018 was also a special one for Divyanka Tripathi Dahiya and Vivek Dahiya as for the same, the former had worn a red saree but the highlight of her entire OOTN was her bangles. Divyanka’s Karwa Chauth special bangles had ‘Vivek’ engraved on it. Vivek had taken to Instagram to post a picture from their ‘moon watching’ and had written, “A very special date night. Underneath the sky full of stars and our chief guest, “The Moon” who took his sweet to arrive but then it was worth wait. Had mine right beside me! #KarwaChauthSpecial.”
Divyanka Tripathi had added ‘Dahiya’ to her name when she had tied the knot with her Yeh Hai Mohabbatein co-star, Vivek Dahiya on July 08, 2016. To mark her first Karwa Chauth post-marriage, Divyanka had posted a collage of the pictures from the celebrations with a poem for the moon. Divyanka had written, “Dear moon, You don't attract me, You don't impress me... The way his glance entices me. Hunger, you don't bother me, thirst, you don't parch me, As his presence satiates me. You are essential moon. Food, water, you are important too. But sorry, Your beauty doubles up, Only when its my man I am next to. (-Divyanka) #Praying for our #TogethernessForever!” (Also Read: Divyanka Tripathi And Vivek Dahiya's 'Wedding Vow Number 8' Is Perfect For Every Millennial Couple)
