In the
article “Rebel Brides and Ex-Wives.” Published in Newsweek (pacific Edition)
author Jason Overdorf talk about how this 19 year old girl came home from
Hyderabad from Delhi to go to her family funeral. Her father Chiranjeevi is a
megastar in the Telugu language film industry. Her father friend was disowned
for eloping with Shirish Bhardwaj 23 and the two got married on live television
last October. Apparently there TV wedding alerted police and a mob of angry fans
who trailed the couple from the temple. They told her to dump the guy so she
could marry a groom of their parents choosing.
They do match making across India online and more and more people keep using the internet so it is becoming more and more easyer to find a man or woman to go and get married.
I did not like this article at all. It was so confusing for me to understand what is going on. Even though I have a good educated guess of what it is all about. I have a good friend of mine who was an arranged marriage and they would skype for about a couple times. Then my friend flew to India to get married and he has not been on a date nor has he seen her in person intel the day of the wedding. It also took him two years to bring her to the United States because she is from another country. Let me know what you thought about this article.
