I'm a punjabi and I have never seen my mother, aunts or bhabhis in my extended family etc without mangalsutra and sindoor..! Or even without a bindi or bangles.. Like they all wear at least one gold/laakh or any other bangle in each hand if not dozens on daily basis... :) specially my mother she doesn't even go without earrings on daily basis. My grandmother scolds me for not wearing any earrings though I'm unmarried :P she always tells us not to keep our ears and hands bare. Maybe it differs family to family?

may be...yar...i told what i see...

absolutely, it depends on family to family and person to person...I am north indian hindu, I do not wear mangarsutra and bangles. My hubby doest like bindi on my face so I don't put bindi. I wear only sindoor 😊

Only Sikh wear Kara. It is not a symbol of marriage. Nor they wear sindoor and mangalsutra

Generally all south indians wear mangal suthra ..., especially tamil people- they wont even keep it aside from their body even when they are changing the yellow threads.. Creatives are showing non-sense

she is married to punjabi and in punjabis mangalsutra and sindoor is not that important..women do not have to wear a sindoor or mangalsutra on a day to day basis. (someone Pls correct me if i m wrong)...

Wearing a mangalsutar and sindoor is not a punjabi thing. It's a religous thing.
The Bhallas are Hindu Punjabi meaning she should be wearinga mangalsutar and Sindoor as it was put on her during the wedding ceremony. it's a religious thing, not a cultural thing.
Culture = Punjabi and Religion = Hinduism in this case.
Most people get this fine line crossed...a good example woudl be the Lohri...it's not a religious festival it's a cultural festival celebrated by most of the people that live in Punjab irrespective of creed.
:D
