Raksha Bandhan is the celebration of the beautiful bond between brothers and sisters. The festival is observed every year on the full moon day of the Hindi month of Saavan. On this day, sisters tie a Rakhi on their brother's wrist and pray for their long lives. On the other hand, the brother promises his sister to protect her always. While Raksha Bandhan 2022 fell on August 11 this year, TV stars Nia Sharma and Divyanka Tripathi tied Rakhis on their brothers' wrists a bit early. 

Nia Sharma celebrated Raksha Bandhan a week early. The actor proved she does not need a fixed date to celebrate her bond with her brother. Taking to her Instagram handle, Nia Sharma shared a series of photos from her Rakhi celebration with her director brother Siddharth Malhotra. In the photos, Nia Sharma could be seen dressed in a hot pink full-sleeved dress with cutouts. She tied her hair in a messy bun and completed her look with a silver necklace. 

In the caption, she penned, "Early or late.. May our Rakhi lunch ritual remain forever @siddharthpmalhotra @sapnamalhotra01 my Dearest bhaiya and Bhabhi." The director reacted to the post and penned, "Happy happy Rakhi to u my adorable sis." Take a look at their pictures here.
