The 'eesmart' South Indians
Sunday, February 14, 2010
Read this - A Bihar girl called off wedding after she saw the groom's drunk dancing at her 'own' wedding baarat.
‘‘Dancing in a drunken state in such an ‘uncivilized manner’ is not acceptable to me and my family,’’ he (girl's father) said. A desperate Ravi even called in police. Decked in traditional red bridal attire, the girl still didn’t budge.
There was always this tinge of dissatisfaction whenever I admitted to my colleagues in Sydney that there would be no dancing at my wedding. "But why?" "Well, I come from South India. Our weddings are little different from the Northern ones - the ones that they show in the movies. The groom does not arrive on a horse nor is there a vibrant looking dancing marriage procession."
But hey, look at the brighter side. We dont have to dance at our weddings (even if we wanted to). The probability of a South Indian groom ending up in a similar situation is almost remote to nil. Arent we 'eesmart' people, eh :)

Aren't grooms in South Indian weddings supposed to sit topless during the whole ceremony. I mean I have never seen my gult friends more conscious of their beer bellies than just before their weddings! :P
@ishu - lets call it a one-off :)
@Manan - but hey, i havent heard of any girl walk off from a marriage coz of the beer belly. down south, every male 'adult' has one - thanks to our cuisine :) (our movie heroes sport one too :D )
I dont have one :)
@Shreyan - in that case you sir, are not movie hero material :P
cant agree more with ishu :P
Hello!
I think the girl was not from an iim else she would have seen such worse male dancers that she would have been happy marrying the bihari! :D
