2026: The Chooda ceremony is a central Sikh pre-wedding ritual celebrating the bride's transition into married life. The bride's maternal uncle and aunt gift her red and ivory bangles, which are first dipped in a mixture of milk and rose petals to cleanse and bless them. This act symbolizes fertility, prosperity and spiritual protection, while family members gather to pray for the bride's happiness and success in her new journey.
