Invite family to a barsi, punyatithi or first death anniversary: havan, bhajan and lunch timings, a photograph in remembrance and a quiet way to reply.
You can make a Barsi invitation online for free with IndiaDigital Invites: choose one of 4 Barsi themes, add each function (Havan and Lunch) with date, time, venue and a map, write the words in English and Hindi (or another Indian language), and share one link on WhatsApp. Guests need no app or login, RSVP is optional and worded gently, and the page is deleted 7, 30 or 90 days after the event.
Hover or tap a theme to watch it open. Every theme comes in several colours, and you can switch any time, even after sharing.
A year after a death, many families gather again for the barsi or first punyatithi, with a havan, a path or bhajans, sometimes a langar or a meal for the needy, and a family lunch. It is a smaller, quieter gathering than the first days of mourning, mostly for close relatives and old family friends who want to remember the person together and support the family once more.
This page lets you share that remembrance gently. Add a photograph and a few lines about the person, the havan and lunch timings with the venue map, and, if you wish, a few photos from their life as a short story. The page uses calm mode, soft colours, no music and no animation, and relatives can tell you whether they will come. You choose when the notice is deleted after the day.
Change, reorder or add more. Each one gets a map button, Add to calendar and its own headcount.
