India Today
A 24-year-old girl from Vadodara named Kshama Bindu is getting married to herself on June 11.
It is known that a marriage requires the presence of a boy and a girl or two people for a gay marriage, but have you ever heard that a person can marry themselves? Well, a 24-year-old girl from Vadodara is marrying herself. No, we are not joking. Kshama Bindu is all set to marry herself according to rituals.
WHO IS KSHAMA BINDU?
Kshama, a resident of Vadodara, is getting married to herself on June 11. The preparations for the marriage of Kshama are almost done. She even ordered a lehenga for the wedding, and also distributed the wedding cards. However, there is no groom's name on the wedding card, but only the name of the bride.
While most girls dream of a groom who will come riding on a horse and take them with them, Kshama found her groom within herself. She is so fond of herself that she doesn’t wish to marry anyone else. And so she decided to do the saat pheras by herself.
Kshama has done her graduation in Sociology and is currently working as Senior Recruitment Officer in a private company. Both her parents are engineers. Her father is in South Africa and her mother stays in Ahmedabad. Although it took Kshama hours to make her parents understand her situation, they both agreed to her wishes in the end.
The pandit also had to be persuaded to perform this unique marriage. Kshama will get married to herself in the presence of her friends where her parents will attend the functions via video call. As for honeymoon, Kshama has plans to go to Goa.
