With curated touchpoints like free mehendi, bangle and gajra counters, mouth-watering snacks, and exclusive hampers, we are creating an atmosphere that mirrors the spirit of Karwa Chauth, making every visit feel like a celebration in itself.”

Every woman walking into the Lakshita stores during this celebration will also be treated to free Mehendi, snacks, gajra, bangles, and an exclusive LK hamper filled with Karwa Chauth essentials,  making the experience both indulgent and memorable.
