The Great Indian Business

Imagine a shop where you go to buy a product. The owner of the shop show you his product and offers you that if you like his product, not only he will give his product free but will also give you the cash ( the amount of cash is negotiable ) for liking his product. You will say what sort of business is this, where the business owner gives away even all his operating cost? How this will survive? But don't wonder, this sucking business is not only surviving, it is prospering day by day in India. This business is known as the Great Indian Wedding.
       Now imagine a scene- this is a scene you can see anywhere in India. A noise called baraat ( groom's party)  with a cacophonous band arrives with some foolish looking guys dancing, regardless of the fact that it creates a disturbance on the road and problems in the neighbourhood ( this is acceptable in the Indian society! The family and father of the bride welcome the baraat with a smile ( perhaps for giving all his hard-earned money for buying the product, sorry, the groom ). The the bride comes with a garland of flowers for the groom ( forgetting that he is in a sucking business ). After some photography & videography, khana-wana ( foods ) and some further material dealings-hagglings, wedding take place at the alter. The bride goes away with the groom, satisfied he sucked all her father's money.
       To some people in India, this article may look too harsh. But every person with a conscious must ponder- is this a relationship? Is relationship means haggling for cash or kind? Can money buy a relationship? What sort of mind a person has, if he sucks a family he is going to build a life-long relationship. Is this a case of love or loot? Why the Indian society which hates most well-meaning sytems, have created such a strong sucking system which most of people don't want to break?
       Just think about it!
