For every married woman, Karwa Chauth is one of the most cherished festivals — a symbol of love, devotion, and togetherness. Traditionally, wives observe a day-long fast for their husbands’ long life and well-being. But in recent years, several Bollywood husbands have also joined in the celebration by fasting for their wives, making the festival even more special.
Here are a few celebrity husbands who set beautiful examples of mutual love and respect by observing the Karwa Chauth fast for their partners:
Ayushmann Khurrana
Bollywood actor Ayushmann Khurrana is known for his deep bond with wife Tahira Kashyap. During Tahira’s cancer treatment, Ayushmann observed a nirjala (waterless) fast for her good health — a gesture that touched the hearts of fans across the country.
Virat Kohli
Indian cricket star Virat Kohli also observes Karwa Chauth along with his wife, actress Anushka Sharma. Married since 2017, the couple often share glimpses of their celebration on social media, symbolizing equality and partnership in their relationship.
Raj Kundra
Businessman Raj Kundra never misses a chance to make his wife, actress Shilpa Shetty Kundra, feel special. The couple, who tied the knot in 2009, celebrate Karwa Chauth together every year — with Raj fasting alongside Shilpa as a mark of love and solidarity.
Jay Bhanushali
Television actor Jay Bhanushali also fasts for his wife, actress Mahhi Vij. The two married in 2011 but revealed their marriage publicly a year later. Jay’s sweet gesture of fasting every Karwa Chauth shows his affectionate bond with Mahhi.
