The concept of celebrating Mothers Day on the second Sunday of May is very new in India and it can be said that in a time span of less than a decade, Mothers Day has been a great success. Remembering this, our BHS club arranged a cultural programme on12th May this year on Sunday in our club premises. The reason behind the success of Mothers Day in India can be attributed to the emotions which are attached to the festival.Perhaps Indians have always felt the need of such a day which is devoted solely to mothers. Mothers Day gives them all the opportunity to celebrate such a day. Mothers Day is the time to say a big thank you to mother for all this and for being a constant guiding force in our lives.
In India, people send cards to their mamas on Mother’s Day. Make a meal for Mothers so that she can have a day’s rest from the kitchen. Tradition of giving gifts on Mother’s Day is also rampant.The whole idea of celebrating Mothers Day is to thank mother, to make her feel important on the day and be happy about mothering caring children. Mothers should be pampered on the day by children and on the whole should be given a happy Mother’s Day.
Celebrations in Metropolitan and Big Cities Awareness about Mothers Day is much greater in metros and other big and happening cities than in smaller towns. Thanks to the booming card market, who keep reminding people about when is Mothers Day and how it must be celebrated.In the capital city of Delhi, Mothers Day is celebrated in a big way and has been commercialised to a great extent. Big companies launch various women oriented products on the day and restaurants try to lure people with attractive advertisements. Media too creates a big hype about the day with special programmes and features.
Looking at the fast pace at which the excitement for Mothers Day is growing it will not be long when the Mothers Day will be noted as the national festival of India.
