People often remain curious about the marriages of the Hindu community living in Pakistan. Generally, Hindu weddings in India are known for grandeur, decoration and celebrations lasting for several days, but in Pakistan their form is somewhat different and comparatively simple. A similar video is going viral these days on social media. In which a glimpse of a Hindu wedding was shown there. This video not only shocked people, but also forced them to think about what should be the real meaning of marriage.
This video was shared by a Hindu youth living in Pakistan. She presented her marriage experience in front of people very simply and honestly. In the video, she told what kind of arrangements are made there during the wedding, especially regarding food, drinks and rituals. It was shown in the video that the food was kept at one place at the wedding and the guests themselves had to stand in line to get food in their plates. This method is different from many weddings in India, where usually there is either a buffet system or food is served by waiters.
Talking about food, the menu of Hindu weddings in Pakistan is also quite normal and classic. According to the video, normal food like dal, rice, vegetables and roti was served at the wedding. Along with this, some sweets were also included, but they also lacked much pretentiousness or expensive dishes. The entire emphasis here is on maintaining simplicity and tradition. This is the reason why this food arrangement looks quite different from the grand and diverse weddings of India, where many types of exotic and expensive dishes are seen.
Talking about rituals, some differences are seen in them also. Although basic Hindu traditions like pheras, pujas and other religious rituals are performed with full devotion here too, they are comparatively simple in nature. Instead of unnecessary frills or elaborate programs, rituals are performed here in a limited and systematic manner.
This simplicity can also be considered a reflection of the social and economic conditions there, which influence these events. After this video surfaced, different reactions of people were seen on social media.
