Brace yourself, ‘Shaadi season is coming’! Trust me, whenever I hear the word ‘marriage’ it gives me sleepless nights and, of course, nightmares!!!
Come any wedding ceremony in the family, neighbourhood nagging aunties start asking, ‘aur beta, shaadi kab kar rhe ho?”
‘Shaadi’ is success. Sounds weird, but in Indian society, it’s the term that works out. If you are a guy or a girl in your late twenties, and not married yet, you’re going to be the talk of the town! (For all the WRONG REASONS!)
And, if you’re in your thirties, you aren’t ‘shaadi wala material’ anymore. Your life is worthless, you are worthless, in fact, you’re a burden on the earth, as per our aunties. (WINK, WINK)
Even, parents start taunting with questions like ‘Toh shaadi ka kya plan hai? ‘Kucch socha hai shaadi ka? ‘Kanware reh kar naak ktwayega/katwayegi society mein!’ BLAH BLAH BLAH!!! (WEARY FACE)
Well, the next time you face such daunting questions, here are a few answers to get ready with! Diffuse the ‘bomb of shaadi’ with these kickass replies.
1. Dad- ‘Toh Shaadi Kab Karoge?’
2. Both Mom & Dad- ‘Toh Shaadi ka kya scene hai, naati pote kab nasib honge hamein?’

3. Neighbourhood Aunty- ‘Teri Shaadi ki Umar Nikli Jaa Rhi hai, Kab Kregi/Krega Shaadi’?
