Overview
Tilak Ceremony (Phaldan) for families in Chowk
The Tilak ceremony is one of the most important pre wedding rituals in Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Madhya Pradesh and among many Hindi speaking families. The men of the bride's family, usually her brother and father, visit the groom's home and apply tilak on his forehead, accepting him into the family.
Chowk is the old commercial heart of Varanasi, a dense network of lanes filled with wholesale markets, silk and sari shops, sweet shops and tall old houses. It lies in the old city between Godowlia and Maidagin, with the lanes towards Kashi Vishwanath close by.
माङ्गल्यं तन्तुनानेन मम जीवनहेतुना।
कण्ठे बध्नामि सुभगे त्वं जीव शरदां शतम्॥
