In Rajasthan, Lagan, Manda, and Chak-Bhaat are traditional pre-wedding ceremonies celebrated with great enthusiasm: 1. Lagan – The formal announcement of the wedding. The groom's family sends a ceremonial invitation (often with sweets and gifts) to the bride's family. 2. Manda – A ritual where the bride and groom are blessed by elders. It often involves applying turmeric paste (haldi) to purify and beautify them. 3. Chak-Bhaat – A special feast hosted by the bride's family for relatives and community members, marking the final major gathering before the wedding. These rituals are deeply rooted in Rajasthani culture, emphasizing family bonds, traditions, and celebrations.
