Why is Hartalika Teej celebrated?

Hartalika Teej is a day dedicated to devotion and marital bliss. It marks the celebration of the union of Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati and falls on the third day of the Hindu lunar month of Bhadrapada. On this auspicious day, women adorn themselves with traditional attire and mainly opt for these 5 shades. Let’s seek inspiration from some South Indian actresses and opt for saree hues with a hint of style.
