Hey blog I am back. Now I’ll try to make a post of decent enough length .

Today is 20th April and on all the news channels there are news of Aish and Abhi wedding. The news readers are too excited to hold their excitement one of them said “Dekhiye vo ghori hai uspe thodi der mein ghora..errrr maaf kijiye dulha baithega”(that’s the mare on which after a few time horse..sorry groom will sit). Anyways TV has become a junk these days. Gone are the days where we waited for TV shows. Now only junk like news channels and K stuff exists. Some exceptions are there but they are very few in number. The Ads too used to be very entertaining few years back now only those irritating Undergarments ads (that too without pretty girls are broadcasted. these irritate me so much that I want to break my TV set sometimes.. especially that ad in which a 50 year old aunty comes… fcuk those people)

Anyways the wedding buzz caused 1 good thing for me. That is “the great Indian wedding” concept. I attended such a function last month. It was the wedding of a friend’s sister and we went to bathinda for it. It was an amazing experience . well I wanted to write about a wedding in general so here it comes..

Normally Indian weddings are swank everybody tries to spend as much as he can on this day. So it is good for other people who have never met bride/groom and are just there because of their parents . now if you come to this on invitation of your friend then you are lucky as your other friends will also join you and masti and dhamal is sure. The first thing anyone looks for is the stalls of snacks. Although there might be a whole army of waiters even then there’ll be crowd of people near those stalls. Everyone wants to try every item at least for once. So that others cant say to him “array!! Tumne chat try nahin ki?? Vo to sabse achi thi”(you didn’t eat chat it was the best). Anyhow even the most vivacious dancer will not dance at 134405445 requests of other people but if it you have company then the worst dancers like me will always try to dance till they are completely exhausted. They will dance and dance till they are about to get unconscious due to excessive sweating and subsequent water loss. Anyhow after 2-3 hours the people who were busy boozing earlier will arrive and their unique African tribal dance begins and it continues until the climax!!!!!!!

The climax is nothing but the dinner. Everyone pretends to ignore it but always keeps an eye on the proceedings. If you are a close relative then you have to sit as the degree of closeness is directly proportional to the delay in your dinner. So other people will stand in long queues and will say “quickly we have to go a long way..” . They will try to put each and every dish in the small plate which ultimately results in a mixture which has a texture and composition that in normal situation you would not even watch it anyways you wouldn’t want to miss any dish otherwise same dialogue of the people as it was before

Then comes the grand finale .. That is usually the sweet dish. There will always be a huge crowd pounding and mobbing the table on which this is done. So the achievement is how many cups you can bring for all your uncle aunties who are too old to do this job. And finally the bill is paid in terms of shagun (money) or gift..

Then everyone doesn’t bother whose wedding it was and everyone sneaks away…

That was the great Indian wedding show…bye blog catch ya later
