Uttar Pradesh / Etawah : Blonde used to get handsome husband, his mind – seeing the black groom, the bride ran away from the pavilion after 2 rounds
A bride after taking two rounds at the wedding refused to marry saying that the groom is ‘very black’. According to reports, the incident took place in Bharthana, Etawah when the bride Neeta Yadav was about to marry Ravi Yadav. After taking two rounds, Neetu suddenly announced that she was breaking the marriage. The bride said that the groom shown to her earlier was not the one she was marrying. She also said that her complexion is too dark for her liking. The bride left the mandap and did not return even after persuading her family members.
Efforts to convince the bride continued for more than six hours after which the bridegroom and the procession agreed to go back without getting married. The groom’s father has now lodged a complaint with the police that jewelery worth lakhs of rupees gifted to the bride was not returned to him. The groom said, the girl and her family had come to meet me many times and I don’t know why they suddenly changed their mind. This incident has hurt me a lot.
