BhiDooj is the fifth day of Diwali celebrations.
In some parts of India it is called Bhaubeej or Bhaiyya tikka. It is a celebration of the pure love of brothers and sisters. Sisters perform aarti along with putting a tika on their brothers forehead 😊
In return brothers generally give a gift to their sisters 😛
Hope this helps
