With each Lavan Phera, with each wedding vow...
Saat Paak culminating to Subho Dristi...
Slipping the ring on his finger...
The auspicious thread around her neck... symbolizing their union..
Two steps taken towards togetherness...
Ready to embark on a new journey...
Lots left behind...
Holding on to it, for one last time...
His family welcomes her folklore...
Her family concedes to his mores...
On the brink of sharing togetherness...
He saw questions swimming in her eyes...
The troubling questions, then spill from her eyes...
He holds them, before they dry...
Together we belong to this genesis...
Together we fly...
I Take You & Your Culture.
You Take Mine...
