Priyanka opts for red outfit: Why people wear this vibrant colour on Karwa Chauth
For Karwa Chauth, Priyanka chose red-coloured traditional attire, which is considered auspicious. But why is Karwa Chauth associated with the colour red? Because draping a red saree or traditional attire is not just a fashion choice; it also holds deep cultural and emotional significance. Women wear a red saree on this occasion to symbolise love, passion, marital bliss and fertility. Wearing red expresses a woman's deep devotion, commitment and prayers for her husband's longevity and the prosperity of her family.
