B,C Correct answer
Explanation

The Sanskrit word 'nakshatra' refers to both stars and constellations in Indian astronomy. It represents the lunar mansions or stellar constellations used in the traditional calendar system. 'Ear studs' and 'jewellery' are incorrect; while nakshatra can be used in jewellery names, the word itself refers to celestial bodies.
