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
- Amavasya tomorrow Fri, 17 Apr
- Chandra Darshan in 2 days Sat, 18 Apr
- Akshaya Tritiya in 3 days Sun, 19 Apr
