SHAADI SEASON…

Season of meeting two hearts, Love in the air types feeling. When there are violin all around you playing a soft romantic music. Even the carpet is decorated with red roses.

The clock stops for a while, And time went unnoticed. There are hundreds of people around you, But your eyes searching someone special, And your heart skips a beat when you finally see her. The BRIDE

You know… Shaadi day is seen only in two ways. One which is already described above… The Groom’s View.

And the other one or I should say the important one is…
