Gujarat man's lifelong wish to have a grand wedding is fulfilled - but without a bride
The wedding procession, in which Ajay rode a horse, was attended by over 200 people who danced to the tune of Gujarati songs.
Himmatnagar: A 27-year-old Gujarat man's long-standing wish to have a grand wedding like his cousin was fulfilled recently at Himmatnagar. However, one essential element was missing during the wedding - the bride
But the unavailability of a bride did not deter Ajoy Barot's family from fulfilling his dream of having a lavish wedding. The family organised a wedding without a bride but ensured all Gujarati traditions and rituals were followed diligently, reported ANI.
Like all Gujarati weddings, the family held mehendi and sangeet ceremonies which were attended by their friends and relatives. On the day of the wedding, Ajay donned a golden sherwani, a pink headwear, and a red and white rose garland.
The wedding procession, in which Ajay rode a horse, was attended by over 200 people who danced to the tune of Gujarati songs.
"My son was diagnosed with a learning disability and lost his mother at an early age. He used to enjoy the wedding procession of other people and asked us about his marriage. We were unable to answer his question as it was not possible to find a match for him," Ajay's father Vishnu Barot told ANI.
"I decided to arrange a wedding procession for him so he feels like his wedding is being held and his dream is accomplished," he added.
Ajay's uncle told the news agency that he is very enthusiastic about music and dance, especially the type he gets to see at weddings.
"He never misses any wedding in our village. After seeing my son's marriage in February, Ajay used to ask us about his wedding. When my brother came up with an idea to fulfil his son's wish, we all stood by him and decided to have his varghodo like any normal wedding," Ajay's uncle Kamlesh Barot told the news agency.
