It was just a few days ago that a groom from Kannur decided to reach his wedding venue on a camel and the internet was abuzz. Young people now want to do something unique on their wedding day to make it memorable and special. It is not unusual to travel to the venue by luxury car or bicycle. On the other hand, some grooms prefer to walk or jog to the venue to meet their bride. And now, what's trending on social media is a video of a Bangalore bride taking the metro to the venue. But she didn't just do this to become an overnight internet sensation. She chose the metro to avoid the traffic jams in Bangalore city.
The woman was worried about getting stuck in heavy traffic during the city's peak hours. Interestingly, she entered the subway wearing a bridal gown with all kinds of decorations, attracting the attention of the passengers.
The video was posted on an 'X' account (formerly Twitter) called 'Forever Bengaluru' with the caption, 'A wise Bengaluru bride ditches her car just before the muhortam time of her marriage and takes the metro to her wedding venue.' It was posted with a memo. She is also accompanied by her parents and other relatives.
Netizens seemed impressed, saying the bride ditched age-old wedding traditions for modern simplicity. On the other hand, wishes are showered on women from all over the place. Many say this is something anyone living in a big city can adopt.
