I have come across many people who have questioned about arranged marriage. To me arranged marriage is a new life filled with all kinds of flavours.. romance, eagerness, misunderstanding, chemistry, adventure, name the masala and you get it.
It was a love at first sight for my sister (Shravanthy Sarathy). It was just another normal summer day, the boy and his family came to our house to see Shravanthy. The normal day turned out to be the special day the moment their eyes met. They both talked alone for 15 odd minutes and bang... their life changed... She came out smiling or was it shyness mixed with "oh god! I am flying" reaction. I have never seen my sister feeling so shy the way she did that day. We knew that they both like each other instantly!!
It was just matter of days that their marriage was finalised.. the dates, the place, the stage, the camera, the preparation started in full swing in one end... the other end.. the hero and the heroine were calm.. made sure that they were grounded and slowly took steps towards each other. They started with a message and slowly to whatsapp and calls. Though there were no long hour chats yet they ensured they shared every possible details of their life. Oh wait! did I say no long hour chat? Apology.. It involved few long hour calls but not boy talking to girl! The boy's family talking to girl!!! They just embraced her like she already was a member of their family and she was already a part of their family discussions!
The period between engagement and marriage was her best phase of life. She was happy, chirpy, though a bit engrossed with phone(ahem.. I have mentioned there was no long hour chats!!) , full of life. Everyone around her could feel her warmth and happiness. She would say stories about him to us and each story recitation would make her eyes more twinkle. We knew little about him and whatever we knew was from Shravanthy's view. We got to know much about him during the wedding. We realised how true Shrav was and felt happy for her. During the wedding, It became more evident how much they were attached and how they could not take off their eyes from each other.
They say opposites attract, But I believe opposites complement each other. She is naughty and crazy to the core, he is stable and knows his head. She is impatient, he is calm. She is super fast, he stops, thinks and reacts! They are not opposite in everything, they do have commonalty. Food.. the couple love food, travel and spending time with family. Both coming from a huge joint family so they both love people, crowd and things that come along with that!!
Few of my favourite snaps...
Being her sister and tolerated all her nonsense, I pity my brother-in-law (Atimber). A moment of silence for his patience!!
It has already been a month since the grand wedding and both have gelled along so well that you already see the couple as a single soul! On the first month anniversary, AnuRevSrini wish the duo a Happy Anniversary and may you stay blessed with all the happiness and laughter.
