Sindu specially is a Krishna fan, Not Orient or khaitan fan, I meens devotee. perhaps that is why she chose to get married in guruvayur. <BR/><BR/>many of the pictures were meant for you to see e2dees. terrific atmosphere there, it was all happening. I did not take off my shirt to go inside the temple, and I don't know how to wear a veshti, though there were many to help me.<BR/><BR/>You gonna have lots of it e2dees wen you come for a holiday, wish you come for Onam. Sindu will make jaggery payasam. I have tasted it already at her place yumms it was. I know where to get raagi puttu. <BR/>Its like this, we have puttu kadala kari at one place and travel 100 KMs to have adai.<BR/><BR/>missing your posts e2dees please write something, you don have to make sense, nonsense is fine with me, thats what I am.<BR/><BR/>i'll pass on your best wishes to Sindu and Nirmal. they are in a tranquil place, leading a quiet happy life, there is music. Sindu has ear for carnatic music, Nirmal is all drums and band baaja like me.raufhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14069291890495563749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18166829.post-1150742636990613472006-06-20T00:13:00.000+05:302006-06-20T00:13:00.000+05:30hi rauf..Thanx for sharing these pictures with us....hi rauf..Thanx for sharing these pictures with us.<BR/>They make a lovely couple and it does appear to be a simple wedding.Wish all weddings back home were like this..simple,based on love and trust and not some stupid business deal and matching horoscopes!!<BR/>Wishing happiness to Sindhu and Nirmal and I hope they havent given up on their plans to visit that forest in Kerala.<BR/>The food pic was sheer torture Rauf and no thanks for that. lol!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18166829.post-1150685019734327112006-06-19T08:13:00.000+05:302006-06-19T08:13:00.000+05:30You must be busy Cari, Yes she looks stunning, and...You must be busy Cari, Yes she looks stunning, and they are a happy and understanding couple. <BR/>Thanks for your prayers and blessings Cari.raufhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14069291890495563749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18166829.post-1150652078383202252006-06-18T23:04:00.000+05:302006-06-18T23:04:00.000+05:30So sorry haven't posted!!

That is why marriages are performed with hundreds of witnesses watching. a simple union is made complicated only for this reason that they should stay together for ever.raufhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14069291890495563749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18166829.post-1150404903420234202006-06-16T02:25:00.000+05:302006-06-16T02:25:00.000+05:30Great events, awesome pictures, lovely brides, han...Great events, awesome pictures, lovely brides, handsome grooms, and proud parents!

We do suffer from many social evils. Those who witnessed Nirmal Sindu wedding perhaps would learn that it is love which matters most. Wealth and property does not bring peace of mind. Here in India the groom is up for the highest bidder, who ever offers the maximum dowry gets him as his son in law. wedding is more of a business.

Nirmal was very much against it. Nirmal and sindu both did not want a big show. Yes me too don't like rehearsed weddings Laila, its like a stage show for audience. Here everything was genuine, love and affection, genuine goofs. genuine chaos. No attempt was made either by Nirmal or by Sindu to put up a great show. It just happened.raufhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14069291890495563749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18166829.post-1150389306598902312006-06-15T22:05:00.000+05:302006-06-15T22:05:00.000+05:30Thank you so much for taking the time to share you...Thank you so much for taking the time to share your country's culture and beauty with us all!!!
