To make weddings memorable, and leave an impression, families in India have used several kinds of vehicles – from bullock carts all the way to helicopters – at different stages of the ceremonies. A family from Uttar Pradesh’s Jhansi, however, decided to take things up a notch for the bride’s ‘bidaai’<\/em> or ceremonial send-off, which is now making the wedding go viral.<\/p>\n

When Karishma, the bride of Rahul Yadav, youngest son of Azad Nagar resident Munni Lal Yadav sat in an SUV for her ‘bidaai’ <\/em>on Thursday, everything seemed normal until not one, not two, but nearly a dozen bulldozers joined the procession. People initially reacted with shock, fearing bulldozer action – \u00a0a term used for the Yogi Adityanath-led Uttar Pradesh government demolishing illegal constructions and premises owned by criminals – but joined in and started making videos when they realised that the machines were part of wedding festivities.\u00a0<\/p>\n

As the videos started going viral, some even started calling the wedding the “Bulldozer Wedding”.<\/p>\n

Asked how they got the idea, the groom’s uncle, Ramkumar said, “These are Babaji’s bulldozers and we thought of doing a different kind of ‘bidaai’<\/em> with them, which will look good and different. I am very happy. People traditionally use cars and helicopters, but we used bulldozers because, by the grace of god, we own some JCBs.”<\/p>\n

The groom, Rahul, said he was very happy about the unique ceremonial send-off as well. “We decided to do this thinking that people will like it. The bulldozer is very popular in Uttar Pradesh.”<\/p>\n

His wife, Karishma, echoed his views.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Earlier this week, a family had arranged a helicopter<\/a> for a newlywed couple to return home to Bihar’s Vaishali from Patna.\u00a0<\/p>\n
