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
- Purnima tomorrow Sat, 10 Dec
- Sankashti Chaturthi in 5 days Wed, 14 Dec
- Krishna Shashti in 7 days Fri, 16 Dec
