ABOUT THIS FAMILY

What are ground chakkars?

A chakkar is a coiled tube that spins when lit, producing a circle of sparks close to the ground. Some add a whistle or change colour as they turn. Because they move, a clear flat area matters more than size.

  • Classic, special and deluxe ground chakkars
  • Whistling wheels and pearl-drop effects
  • Moon and Honda-style wheels
  • Ashoka and big-size chakkars

Using ground chakkars safely

  • Place on hard, flat ground - concrete or stone, not grass or sand that stops it spinning.
  • Light at arm’s length from the side and step back straight away.
  • Keep 3–5 metres clear in every direction; a spinning chakkar can skid.
  • Wear closed footwear; never stand over or kick a spinning wheel.
  • If it stops before burning out, wait 20 minutes, then soak it in water.

Full safety centre

How should I store ground chakkars?

In their original box in a cool, dry place away from heat, flames and children, until the moment of use.

Where should I use ground chakkars?

Outdoors on a flat, hard, open surface away from buildings, dry leaves, vehicles and crowds.

How many ground chakkars can I light at once?

Light one at a time. Several spinning together can collide and throw sparks in unexpected directions.

What if a ground chakkar doesn’t spin or ignite?

Never relight it or pick it up. Wait at least 20 minutes, then pour water over it and soak it before disposal.

How far should spectators stand?

At least 3–5 metres (10–15 feet), with the area clear of obstacles and anything flammable. Follow the distance printed on the pack.

Are ground chakkars suitable for children?

Children can enjoy watching them from a safe distance, but an adult should always light them.

Are these products sold online on this website?

No. In line with the Supreme Court of India’s directions on the sale of firecrackers, we do not take orders, bookings or payments online - and we do not move orders to WhatsApp either. You can ask us about any product by phone or through the enquiry form, and buy only from a licensed retailer near you.

Are there rules on when and where I can burst crackers?

Yes. Permitted products, timings and areas are set by courts, state governments and local authorities, and they change from year to year. Check the current local notification before the festival, and follow any rules in your housing society or area.

HAVE A QUESTION BEFORE THE FESTIVAL?

Ask us. We’ll explain it clearly.
