Karwa Chauth is being celebrated on 27th October this year throughout India. During this time all married women do whole day fasting for their husband's long life. In Karva Chauth's fasting, women do not drink even water. Women can neither eat nor drink water until the moon comes out.

This is why women fasting on the Karwa Chauth eve, eagerly wait for the moon to come out after which they break their fast by drinking water from their husband's hand. The Hunger and thirst make its difficult for women to wait and they keep looking in the sky and wait for the moon when to come out.
