Unite and Celebrate This Rakhi via Rakhi.in!!

I have a huge family of whopping 15 members. I have four brothers and one sister all married and well

settled. Our family ranges from Zamindari era and our grandmother used to be a very renowned person

once. She had established a Hindu Joint Family business and till now all my brothers and uncles are

active participants in it. We have branches of operation spread across India and each of my brothers

have taken a station near each branch.

Sushant, the eldest one is in Hyderabad, Srikant, next is in Ahmedabad, Arjun is in Bangalore and Mihir is

in Lucknow. As fate would have it, we all are separated, staying in different cities. However every year

we all unite on the occasion of Raksha Bandhan to hold a grand festival. This year due to our business’

golden jubilee celebration none of my brothers will be able to come to Kolkata for the same. And this

year I have devised a very special plan to surprise all my lovely siblings living far away.

I have been suggested by my friend to celebrate rakhi the cyber way via Rakhi.in. This website stores

hundreds of beautiful, finely crafted rakhis to match everyone’s mood. For return gifts for sisters, there

is a separate gallery of varieties of gifts. I am thinking of sending rakhis to my brothers and a return gift

to my sister.

As Mihir is a sucker for dry fruits and nuts I’ll send Rakhi to Lucknow, with a dry fruits platter. I’ll send

rakhi to Ahmedabad to Srikant but as her wife loves coffee mugs, I have half a mind to send her coffee

mugs along with the rakhi. Arjun is currently in Patna staying at his brother-in-law’s place, so for him I’ll

send rakhi to Patna. As for Sushant, he has two lovely little twin daughters and for them I will send

chocolates and cushions as I send rakhi to Hyderabad for him.

All my sisters-in-law have secretly informed me that my brothers have taken their suggestions and have

planned to send gifts to me and Akansha, my sister who lives in UK. I am also planning to send them

some sweets and gifts via the same website. Amidst the preparations for the golden jubilee

celebrations, they have remembered their sisters and have been creative enough to send us online gifts.

Frankly, it does not matter what they send, what matters to me is the fact that they have remembered.

Nonetheless, I am hoping to send rakhi to Hyderabad as soon as possible since Sushant will have to be

leaving for Bangalore pretty soon. Akansha said she will also send rakhi to Ahmedabad and other

places. I may have to remind her to send rakhi to Patna for Arjun as he is not in Bangalore currently. Ma

is very excited and told me that as I send rakhi to Lucknow, I should positively send Soan Papdi and

Gulab Jamun for Mihir’s wife as she is pregnant.
