You must have seen thousands of wedding videos on social media – some show the shy bride’s entry, while some show the bride and groom dancing on the stage. But, nowadays a video of a ‘Dabangg’ bride is going viral on the internet, who broke all the customs on her wedding day. This bride was not in the mood for traditional rituals like *jaymala* (wearing a garland) or dance; Rather she wanted to show her physical strength. Dressed in a beautiful pink *lehenga*, she took a table among the guests and issued a direct challenge to the men attending the wedding: an arm-wrestling match. Not only this, she was so confident that she shouted, “Hey, why are you bringing girls? Bring boys! I can beat girls even with my eyes closed!”
**’Wrestling arena’ on wedding stage; The groom’s sweat**
A beautiful pink wedding set is visible in the background of this viral and funny video. Usually, this is where the bride and groom strike romantic poses; But the view here was completely opposite. A pink colored box was kept in the middle, on which the bride had kept her hand firmly. A young man wearing red *sherwani* smiled at first, but as soon as the arm-wrestling started, he started sweating. The bride held his hand with all her strength, and the tremendous passion to win was clearly visible on her face. The guests and cameramen standing nearby couldn’t stop laughing, while some got really nervous, wondering: “If this is the case on the very first day of the wedding, what will happen next?” In the end, the bride won this contest.
**”Bring the boys…” This dialogue of the bride became the life of the video**
The funniest part of this video is the dialogue which the bride spoke with full enthusiasm while doing arm-wrestling. She gave a clear and blunt challenge: bring any boy in front of her, because defeating girls is child’s play for her. On social media, people are very fond of this bride’s bold style and her tremendous way of showing her strength. Generally, in Indian weddings the groom looks very quiet and shy; But, this “new age” bride has made it clear that she is no less than anyone – and as soon as the *vidai* (parting off ceremony) is over, she will be handling everything herself at her in-laws’ house.
As soon as this video surfaced on social media, it immediately went viral, and people started jokingly teasing the groom. In the comment section, users are leaving funny comments one after the other. One user wrote, “Brother, this groom will have to wash utensils for the rest of his life – and that too without any argument!” Another user commented, “This girl is the embodiment of *Shakti* (divine power); we must admire the courage of the groom who actually remained sitting in the *mandap* during the wedding rituals.” While another user wrote, “Now *this* is really what we call a ‘fearless girl’ (*shrugs*); no one in this house would dare mess with her anymore.” Overall, this video has given the internet a great laugh.
