Strange occurrences at Indian weddings

Amid strange occurrences at Indian Wedding, recently a bride called off her marriage in the Indian state of Odisha after mutton went short for serving to the guests from the groom's side. As a result, the groom had to leave empty-handed. The bizarre incident took place at the bride's house located in the Dhama area of Sambalpur district in Odisha.

As per reports in Odishatv.in, the quarrel began after a mutton shortage at the feast due to which the last seven to eight guests from the groom's side could not be served the dish.

The bride's family said that they were unable to arrange mutton at that hour because it was already late in the evening. However, the issue blew out of proportion. The bride chose not to go forward with the marriage after being upset by the groom and his guests' actions.

Speaking about the incident, the bride told Odishatv.in, “Everything was in place. Even the mutton was served as well. But it finished before the last six or seven persons could eat. Then they started arguing with my father accusing him of mismanagement.”

“My parents and other family members tried to pacify them by offering chicken and fish instead, but they were adamant on their demand for mutton and started misbehaving with us,” the bride said.

"My father even bowed down and pleaded before them, but they remained unmoved. It seemed wrong to me and I told them to leave the place without marriage,” she added.
