You Are Cordially Invited....

  • The loudest and the shrilliest Music...
  • 50 people dancing on a floor made for 10 on tunes that I have never heard in my life...
  • A hall that stinks...
  • People surrounding the food like there is no tomorrow...
  • A floor that sticks to you shoes...
  • Oh and did i forgot to mention the real smoke machine, and the laser lights on the DJ console...
  • No paper tissues around...
  • Men with Rifles and Guns all around...
  • And the Dowry earned Hyundai Santro all decked up at the gate...
Welcome to the BIG FAT WEDDING @ a village in UP....

    ye transition ka hi nateeja hai... marriage functions in villages were worth being in a few years back... i have been a part of some myself.. and loved them...

    totaly the encroachment of the modern ways of celebration and screwed up the traditional feel and killed almost everything...

    and the result is what i mentioned in this post...

  4. Dad told me that Dr. Rajendra Prashad once recommended that the rich people shouldn't have a loud showoff at wedding functions, because the not-so-rich will try to follow them and go beyond what they can afford. This is exactly what is happening.

    apt.... i remember using the words rich and not so rich in the morning today in a discussion as well...

    we have lost a lot because of these replication attempts... not sure if that is the right way ahead...
