Budaun: In Budaun, Uttar Pradesh, two young women, decided to skip the dating apps and marry each other instead. The duo, who met while working in Delhi, bonded over heartbreak stories that sounded suspiciously similar—both reportedly fell for men on Facebook who turned out to have completely different personality from their digital persona.
In true cinematic fashion, betrayal gave way to sisterhood, and eventually, to sindoor. Meera, the bride, and Sapna, the self-declared groom, conducted the wedding first at a temple, then had it legally formalized under the supervision of a surprisingly patient set of advocates.
“We’ve decided to love each other since men clearly can’t be trusted,” Sapna declared. While the wedding raised eyebrows and drew mixed reactions at the local courthouse, the brides remained unfazed. “They cheated us,” Meera said.
“Now we’ll prove we don’t need them.” People may call it an emotional overcorrection. But for now, the newlyweds seem content with their plan: less heartbreak, more homemade dal-chawal and no men in sight.
