The Chura ceremony is a big event which takes place an eve before the day of wedding ceremony. All the guests present gather around to witness this ceremony and they also shower the bride with numerous gifts as a token of love and blessings.

You may also hear the phrase Chura Churana for this ceremony because after the maternal uncle and aunty help the bride to put on the chura they are offered a drink of milk as a mark of respect and to celebrate the last eve of the girl with her family and also because the word churana actually means to put on.

    I bought my chura from you last year, and I got married in August 2017. I have not taken a single bangle off and my chura has stayed on for a year! Still the same colour, no fading :)
