Frequently Asked Questions
When is Gangaur in 2027?
Gangaur 2027 falls on Friday, 9 April 2027. Tritiya tithi runs from 03:10 AM, 9 Apr to 01:32 AM, 10 Apr IST, as calculated for Ujjain. Times shift by a few minutes for other cities.
What is Gangaur?
An 18-day Rajasthani vrat where Parvati — called Gawarja — is treated as a married daughter visiting her parents. She arrives the day after Holi; her husband Isar (Shiva) comes to fetch her back on Chaitra Shukla Tritiya, when clay images of the couple are carried in procession and immersed.
Why is Gangaur observed?
The whole festival is staged as a family visit. The puja spot is treated as Gauri's maternal home (pehar); the pond or well where the images are immersed is her in-laws' house. Folk songs address Gawarja as an elder sister and Isar as the brother-in-law, so the worship feels like sending off a bride. Married women carry the dressed clay images on their heads in an afternoon procession to a garden or tank; on the final day the image of Gauri is turned to face the same way as Isar before immersion. The fast is unusual: per the Vratotsav Sangraha, a woman takes only milk once a day and keeps the vrat secret from her husband — even the prasad is not shared with him. Women also offer 'Gune', tiny ornaments shaped from turmeric, flour and gram flour, which are later given to the mother-in-law and sisters-in-law.
What are the other names for Gangaur?
Gangaur is also known as Gauri Tritiya, Chaitra Gauri Vrat and Saubhagya Gauri Vratam.
