The Mangalsutra, also known as Thaali, is a sacred pendant worn by married Hindu women. It symbolises the marital bond and is considered as the central theme of Hindu matrimony. Typically made of gold, it carries profound cultural and spiritual importance. The thread is usually yellow and the traditional way to hold the Thaali/Mangalsutra during the marriage ceremony, for it to be easily tied by the groom around the neck of the Bride during the main "Mangalya dharanam" ritual. The husband ties the Mangalsutra around his wife's neck during the wedding ceremony, signifying their union and commitment. This revered ornament is worn throughout a woman's life, symbolising her commitment, companionship and love to her husband.
