It's called a Bindi. In southern India, girls choose to wear a bindi, while in other parts of India it is the prerogative of the married woman. A red dot on the forehead is an auspicious sign of marriage and guarantees the social status and sanctity of the institution of marriage. The symbolism of the Bindi is no longer strictly followed and they are largely used as jewelry or beauty accoutrements. It's also loosely known as 'tika', 'pottu', 'sindoor', 'tilak', 'tilakam', and 'kumkum'.
