As far as Valentine day is concerned, I don't know much about it. As it has been celebrated in India from past 10-12 years. Before that this day was there but it was not celebrated like this. The Valentine Day has a lot to do with St. Valentine if we turn the page of history. But what are the rituals, I don't know much about that.
