The ancient Indian culture is full of strict traditions and customs that have survived to the present day. For example, many Indian girls do not have to marry for love, this often happens by mutual consent of the parents of the bride and the groom.
The young people only get to know each other before the celebration of the marriage. Only in rare cases do young people allow themselves to go against the parental decision, which threatens with a huge scandal.
Residents of Uttar Pradesh state were quite surprised by the unusual story of a girl who managed to call off a wedding with an unwanted groom.
A few days before the wedding, the first meeting of the newlyweds took place, and during the conversation the girl asked the young man for a simple arithmetic example: “What is 15 + 6? »
Embarrassed by this unexpected turn of events, the young man thought intensely for several minutes and replied that it would be the 27th. Without answering the groom, the girl later informed her parents that she refused to marry him.
Parents on both sides were very surprised by such an unexpected act of the capricious bride, an extraordinary scandal erupted.
And only after talking with his daughter face to face, the father made up his mind and returned all the gifts from the groom’s parents. He explained his decision by the fact that he did not want his daughter to live all her life with an uneducated and narrow-minded person.
“I have always been proud of my daughter and I want to see her happy alongside a worthy person,” he told his family and friends.
