The bright object in the night sky; Sharad Purnima's moon is celebrated.

The word 'ચંદ્ર' (chandra) originates from Sanskrit 'चन्द्र' (candra), which means 'moon'. This reflects the moon's importance in various cultural and religious contexts.
'Chandra' is widely used in both spoken and written forms, particularly in formal literature, poetry, and discussions about astronomy or mythology.
Frequently appears in Gujarati poetry and religious texts related to lunar cycles.
