Twinkling, bejewelled Indian wedding cards - got one yet?
New Delhi, Jan 17 (IANS) They could be Swarovski studded, they could match the bride's trousseau, they could come in multiple folds and, yes, they might just cost Rs.100,000 (about $2,000) each. Welcome to the world of the big fat Indian wedding card!
Ever since I saw "Monsoon Wedding" -- Mira Nair's visually stunning film about an arranged marriage in India -- ten years ago, I have longed to be a guest at such an affair.
I find the whole spectacle rather patronizing and yet another effort to both “trivialize” and unnecessarily “exoticize” Indian women and their lifestyles.
