Karwa Chauth is being celebrated today. On this auspicious occasion, Hindu women fast throughout the day for the good health and long life of their husbands. The festival is celebrated annually by married women and is sometimes referred to as Karak Chaturthi.

Karwa Chauth takes place on Krishna Paksha Chaturthi in Kartik month and according to Hindu mythology, married women worship Chauth Mata, Lord Shiva and his family on this day to receive the blessings in the form of long life of their husbands.

The ritual involves fasting from sunrise until moonrise while making special prayers to Goddess Parvati. Women break their fast only after moonrise. Over the years, Bollywood and TV soaps have shown the Karwa Chauth in dramatic scenes, which have received mixed reactions from the audience. Taking clips from these soaps and films, netizens have shared some hilarious memes on the Internet to mark the occasion. Here are some:
