I really cant understand why you say that Rakhi is for sisters! Everybody knows that it’s the festival when sisters tie rakhi on their brothers’ wrists and so its definitely a festival meant for the brothers. Brothers are pampered, given gifts and sweets and special food. It’s the same as Bhaiyya Duj…I am yet to come across any festival in India in which the sisters, mothers, daughters etc are celebrated and pampered.
Of course, in modern times, brothers also give gifts to their sisters…but that doesn’t change the nature of the festival.

There is one festival meant for brothers too. I think it is called as Bhai Dooj. The bengalis call it Bhai Photta.
