ARRANGED MARRIAGES IN INDIA

Great video ... a friend of mine sent me a link to this video.





From the western countries point of view, this video offers an interesting perspective on marriage. Perhaps, the western countries can discover a whole new theory from our India. A little tradition can go a long way towards creating stability in a culture ... perhaps :-)

Though, the figures in the video are a bit of an exaggeration. These days not 90% of the marriages in India are arranged marriages, the correct figure would be around 65-70%, and the divorce percentage is also around 10-12%.

Eventually this gives the clear idea about 'arranged marriage' to the outer world  :)


PS. I had my love marriage arranged :), my parents met my girlfriend and they liked her too, and we got married.
