lunar festival finery

Karwa Chauth is surely an occasion in Indian marriage, which strengthens the marriage bond of the bride and groom and makes them realise the power of their wedding. Karwa Chauth is celebrated every year in most of the Indian families. The festival is celebrated three days after the full moon of the kartik month. It is a kind of tribute paid to the wedding bond, by the bride. The fast is kept by the Indian bride to gain blessings from god for their happy and everlasting married life. Loads of blessings and gifts are also received by the Indian bride, from her relatives and elder people in the family. This is a very auspicious occasion and every Indian bride tries to stand true on the sanctity of the belief and the power of this fast. Women fasting for the first time, after their married life are very excited about the whole process and seeks guidance from her family members.

However, after their split up in April 2010, there's a surprisingly nasty custody battle within the 3-year-old daughter Nahla. While Halle blasted the model being an unfit parent, Aubry claimed that Halle never was around her daughter.
