The wedding season is on
and people are leaving no stone unturned to make their nuptials worth
remembering. Indian weddings are known for their ostentation, elaborate
rituals, and now, spectacular entry by the bride and groom.

A family from Barmer district in Rajasthan hired a private
helicopter to welcome their daughter-in-law home.

According to the Times of India, Tarun Meghwal and Dhiya were
married at Bidhanion ki Dhani near the Pakistan border in Barmer district on
Tuesday night. The next day, the newlyweds reached Jasedhar Dham in
Barmer city in a helicopter.

When the helicopter was about to land, the crowd that had gathered
went out of control. The aircraft had to hover until the cops were able to
control the crowd.

Watch the video here:

It was the dream of the groom’s  mother to bring her
daughter-in-law home in a helicopter. Dalit grooms in the area are beaten for
riding a horse even at their weddings, and Tarun Meghwal’s family looked for
other alternatives. Hence the helicopter.

praiseworthy.
