About this tool
Generate Karwa Chauth wishes and captions in Hindi, Punjabi and English, with the full sargi-to-moonrise ritual order.
The Karwa Chauth Message Generator writes Karwa Chauth wishes and short captions in Hindi, Punjabi and English, with separate wording for a wife, a husband and other family or friends. Karwa Chauth falls on Chaturthi of Krishna Paksha in the month of Kartik under the Purnimanta calendar — the fourth day after the full moon, usually about nine days before Diwali — and the fast runs from before sunrise until the moon is sighted. Alongside the messages, the page lays out the order of the day from sargi to breaking the fast.

Hindi in Devanagari and Punjabi in Gurmukhi, so the message reads properly instead of being transliterated.
Separate lines for a wife, a husband and for friends or family, rather than one message with the words swapped.
Sargi, the nirjala fast, the katha and puja, the moon through the chhalni, and breaking the fast — in sequence.
Karwa Chauth is observed on Chaturthi, the fourth day of the waning fortnight (Krishna Paksha) of Kartik in the Purnimanta calendar. In the Gregorian calendar it lands in October or November, roughly nine days before Diwali, so the date moves each year.
Sargi is the meal eaten before sunrise, just before the fast begins. It is traditionally sent by the mother-in-law and usually includes fruit, dry fruit, sweets such as feni, and something to drink, because nothing further is eaten until moonrise.
The chhalni or sieve is used to view the moon first and then the spouse through the same mesh, marking the end of the fast. It is a widely followed custom rather than a scriptural requirement, and the exact sequence varies between families and regions.
For most healthy adults a one-day fast is manageable, but going without water for twelve or more hours is not safe for everyone. Anyone who is pregnant or breastfeeding, diabetic, on regular medication, or recovering from illness should speak to a doctor first and consider a modified fast — this page is informational and is not medical advice.
