Dewar is like chota bhai in sub-continent's Culture. I think there is a custom in Punjabis probably, where devar sits in new Bhabhi's gaudi to get shagun ka paisa
I think someone told me this here on GS. BTW, the way relationship between devar and Bhabhi is mentioned in 'Kalia doriya kunde naal laRiye o', I can see that there might be such custom in such culture and there is nothing to feel awkward about it.

lol. Noooo. That's only if the devar is some 7-8 year old child, and they mostly carry out this rasam probably to symbolically signify the idea that bhabi is like a mother, in the same way the older brother is like a father to his young siblings. It's not even a popular Punjabi custom.
Can’t imagine what would happen if the above mentioned rasam was carried out with an adult male … Tauba!
anyway…
Like @Princejall said devar-bhabhi relationship is seen as a big sister-younger brother thing and mostly it’s something that is portrayed as a relationship full of *hasi mazak *but I do think it also depends a bit upon the family dynamics, in some families there is a strict pardah etc from devars/jeths.
Anyway, I’ve a Jeth. I see him the same way I see my big brothers. He is *always *on my side, thank God for that because I’ve a devar as well - a complete namoona - who is *never *on my side. Usse bhai ki chamcha giri karne se aur GIF Guru bananey se fursat nahi
What are important cultural aspect of this relation?
How is your relation with your Bhabhi or Dewar?
Are you Dewar or Bhbhi?
On my side of the family, I have one sister-in-law. I have a pretty good relationship with her. I view her as a sibling as she and my brother dated for AGES (4 years or so) prior to even getting engaged, so she's gotten to know our family quite well. I actually think I'm more on the same page with her than with my brother. :D
On my husband's side I have two sister-in-laws and 3 brother-in-laws (one of whom is my husband's identical twin). I get on well with them too. I view them as family as I've gotten to know them quite a bit (as I've known my husband since my last year of high school). I don't get to see them much these days though as we recently moved to another city.
