Indian bride rejects groom on wedding day over baldness
The marriage of Dr. Ravi Kumar had been fixed a year ago.
BIHAR (Web Desk) - An Indian bride refused to marry the groom just minutes before the wedding ceremony after knowing that he was bald.
The marriage of Dr Ravi Kumar had been fixed a year ago to a girl in Sugauli village, Bihar. But they both have never met or seen each other before.
On the said date, February 18, Kumar who is a neurosurgeon, traveled with his family from New Delhi to Bihar.
After all the rituals were completed and all there was left for the betrothed couple was to enter the wedding pavilion to be married, disaster struck.
Kumar removed his traditional headgear and his bride-to-be noticed that he was balding.
The bride at one refused to carry on with the ceremony and rejected the groom on seeing his thinning mane.
The groom’s family tried hard to change the bride’s mind and asked her family to respect the promise made a year ago. But they remained adamant and the wedding was called off.
Kumar with Neha
Kumar’s relatives turned to the local Panchayat for help, and they suggested he marry Neha, the daughter of a poor vegetable seller. The two were married at the Ramjanki Temple complex that same day.
