Bedeutung
To convey good wishes or blessings to someone for their success or happiness.
Kultureller Hintergrund
It is common to touch the feet of elders after receiving their 'शुभकामनाएँ' (blessings). In modern offices, 'शुभकामनाएँ' is often written in emails to maintain a professional yet warm tone. During Diwali, people exchange sweets along with 'शुभकामनाएँ'.
Plurality
Always use 'शुभकामनाएँ' (plural) even if you are giving one wish.
Context is Key
If in doubt, 'शुभकामनाएँ' is safer than 'बधाई' because it's broader.
