The Real Karwa Chauth Miracle: On the day of Karwa Chauth, when everyone was waiting for the moon, Priya was giving life to her husband in the operation theatre. After all, how did a wife turn her fast into a ‘life-giving’? Know the moment which made the entire hospital emotional.
Karwa Chauth 2025: The story of Priya of Rajgarh and her husband Purushottam has given a different identity to this year’s Karva Chauth. This is not just a story of fasting or tradition, but an example of sacrifice, love and rebirth. When every wife was waiting for the moon for her husband’s long life, Priya was saving her husband’s life by donating her kidney in the operation theatre.
Is Karva Chauth limited only to fasting, or can it also become a symbol of donating life?
Priya of Rajgarh did what seems impossible in today’s times. A few months ago, due to Covid infection, both the kidneys of her husband Purushottam got damaged. Doctors said, “Now only kidney transplant can save life.” The family was devastated, hopes were fading, but Priya took a firm decision – “If my kidney can give life to my husband, then that will be my real Karva Chauth.”
How did a wife’s decision become the miracle of Karva Chauth?
Doctors did many tests and the miracle happened that Priya’s blood group and tissue matched completely. The date of the operation was fixed and it was the day of Karva Chauth. While the other women were observing the moon by observing Nirjala fast, Priya was observing the fast of donating her life for her husband in the operation theater of the hospital. After a kidney transplant that lasted several hours, doctors said “the operation was successful.” Purushottam’s heartbeat became normal again, and tears of joy fell from the eyes of the entire family.
Why did the husband say “My wife is Mother Parvati for me”?
Today a healthy Purushottam says emotionally – “He saved my life by fighting death. This is not Karva Chauth, it was my rebirth.” Whereas Priya says smilingly – “Now for me, every Karva Chauth is not a fast, but a celebration of life.” This story of hers is becoming increasingly viral on social media and people are honoring her by calling her “Savitri of Kalyug”.
Is true love still so powerful today?
In ancient times, the story of ‘Veeravati’ was told, who gave life to her husband through her fast. Centuries later, Priya of Rajgarh made the same legend a reality. She proved that true love can subdue any Yamraj. When the moon rises on this Karva Chauth 2025, the face of Priya of Rajgarh will shine in the heart of every wife who has ever looked at the moon for the safety of her husband.
