You’re already aware that all the rituals and cultures followed at the wedding hold some significance. So does Churas! These were started off as a tradition only in Punjabis, but with passing years we have seen that other cultures have started adopting it too. Traditionally, a set of 21 bangles in red or maroon and white or ivory is selected by the aunt (mami) and uncle (mama) of the bride and gifted to her on the day of the ceremony. Also, during the Chura ceremony, the bangles are purified with milk and rose petals. 

Moreover, the Churas are said to be worn for a minimum of 40-45 days, but nowadays we have seen that the brides are happy to wear it for upto a year or even more! Also, with new emerging trends, the brides have started going for different coloured bangles instead of only the red ones.
