Among the many festivals that bring colour to the month, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/mangliksmatrimony\/\"><strong>Karwa Chauth<\/strong><\/a> stands out as one of the most cherished. Falling on Krishna Paksha Chaturthi (the fourth day after the full moon) in the Hindu month of Kartik, Karwa Chauth is also known as Karak Chaturthi. In 2025, the festival will be observed on October 10, uniting married women across India in a day of devotion, fasting, and ritual celebration. While it is most widely observed in North India, several southern states also follow it, based on their regional calendar in the month of Ashwin. Women traditionally fast from sunrise until the moon appears, abstaining from both food and water as a symbol of love, strength, and faith. Here is everything you need to know \u2014 from moonrise timings to fasting rituals and post-fast meal ideas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-16018d1d wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button is-style-fill\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-white-color has-vivid-red-background-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mangliks.com\/register.php\">Find your partner FREE For Marriage!<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Karwa Chauth 2025 Date And Tithi Details<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Chaturthi Tithi Begins: <\/strong>October 9, 2025 \u2013 10:54 PM<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Chaturthi Tithi Ends:<\/strong> October 10, 2025 \u2013 07:38 PM<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Karwa Chauth Puja Muhurat:<\/strong> October 10, 2025 \u2013 05:57 PM to 07:11 PM<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Upavasa (Fasting) Time:<\/strong> October 10, 2025 \u2013 06:19 AM to 08:13 PM<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Moonrise:<\/strong> October 10, 2025 \u2013 08:1<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><em>The moonrise marks the end of the fast, when women look skyward through a sieve, offer prayers, and take the first sip of water from their partner&#8217;s hands &#8211; a moment symbolic of blessings, affection, and renewal.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Significance Of Karwa Chauth<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Karwa Chauth goes beyond ritual fasting; it is a day that celebrates devotion and the strength of relationships. Traditionally, women observe a nirjala fast \u2014 without food or water \u2014 from sunrise until the moonrise, praying for their husband&#8217;s long life and wellbeing. The festival represents endurance and unity among women who gather for the evening puja, share stories, and wait together for the moon&#8217;s first appearance. The sight of the moon becomes the day&#8217;s most awaited moment, marking the transition from discipline to celebration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>In essence,&nbsp;Karwa Chauth&nbsp;is as much about community and cultural continuity as it is about love. Across generations, it remains a symbol of faith, resilience, and shared tradition.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Karwa Chauth 2025: Moonrise Timings In Major Indian Cities<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are the expected moonrise timings for major Indian cities on Karwa Chauth 2025:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td><strong>City<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Moon (Puja) Time<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Delhi<\/td><td>8:13 PM<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Mumbai<\/td><td>8:55 PM<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Kolkata<\/td><td>7:42 PM<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Chennai<\/td><td>8:38 PM<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Dehradun<\/td><td>8:05 PM<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Chandigarh<\/td><td>8:09 PM<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Jaipur<\/td><td>8:23 PM<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Patna<\/td><td>7:48 PM<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Jammu<\/td><td>8:11 PM<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Gandhinagar<\/td><td>8:46 PM<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Ahmedabad<\/td><td>8:47 PM<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Shimla<\/td><td>8:06 PM<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Bhopal<\/td><td>8:26 PM<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Lucknow<\/td><td>8:02 PM<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Kanpur<\/td><td>8:06 PM<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Gorakhpur<\/td><td>7:52 PM<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Prayagraj<\/td><td>8:02 PM<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Noida<\/td><td>8:12 PM<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Gurugram<\/td><td>8:14 PM<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Haridwar<\/td><td>8:05 PM<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Indore<\/td><td>8:34 PM<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Bhubaneswar<\/td><td>7:58 PM<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Raipur<\/td><td>8:01 PM<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What To Eat After Breaking The Fast<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>After an entire day of fasting, it is important to ease your system back into digestion gradually. The goal is to rehydrate, replenish, and restore energy gently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Start with hydration: Once the moon is sighted and the rituals are complete, begin with a few sips of water or milk. This helps the body regain balance after the long fast.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Choose light, home-cooked meals: Opt for comforting, easy-to-digest dishes such as khichdi, dal, or soft chapatis. These foods are gentle on the stomach and aid digestion.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Enjoy sweets in moderation: Treat yourself to a small serving of kheer or halwa to restore glucose levels, but avoid overindulgence.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Avoid heavy or fried foods: Deep-fried snacks, aerated drinks, and caffeine can cause discomfort after fasting. Stick to simple, nourishing meals to help your body recover smoothly.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Eating mindfully after Karwa Chauth allows the body to adjust and prevents fatigue the next day.<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Fasting on Karwa Chauth is as much about intention as it is about endurance. Listening to your body and staying mindful of your limits helps preserve the spirit of the festival without strain. Whether one observes it through family tradition or personal faith, Karwa Chauth reflects an age-old truth about Indian festivals: they are as much about human connection as they are about worship.<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ndtv\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/user\/ndtv\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.whatsapp.com\/channel\/0029Va4lixw7z4kcvZI9JM12\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/ndtv\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/ndtv\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-captioned data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DPnyCrwEmpT\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\" background:#FFF;
