Auspicious
12:04 PM – 12:52 PM
No festival or vrat falls today for your region.
That is a real answer, not a gap — most days of the year are ordinary days,
and a calendar that always has something to sell you is not a calendar.
Coming up
- Papmochani Ekadashi in 2 days Sun, 22 Mar
- Bhauma Pradosh in 4 days Tue, 24 Mar
- Amavasya in 6 days Thu, 26 Mar
