An affair with one’s own wife in Indian marriages!
What aspects of your cultural heritage are you most proud of or interested in?
Amidst a bonhomie, invitation sent to hundreds and thousands and a week long festivity culminating in a marriage of two distant souls. All arranged strictly by the elders in families. The couple have never met before. Not a word spoken. Pushed into a bed overnight with a whole lot of family guarding the door near the bed. One should live in a joint family from the day next. All their life. You’re allowed only to enjoy a limited private time with your partner. I shall call it an ‘affair’ with one’s own wife. And it’s traditional here in India.
How could a smile cost someone’s life?
India is home to hundreds of dental clinics.
They advertise they are doctors from heaven and are experts in cosmetic surgeries.
People visit those clinics for various corrective procedures to alter the shape of dental as well as facial features. Bizarre!
A 28-year-old Laxmi Narayana Vinjam from Hyderabad was one such victim and he fell prey to a nonsense called ‘Smile Design Procedure’.
He was getting married in a month’s time, and he wanted to look a notch up when he smiled. He was dreaming about his new bride.
The doctors (or rather the quacks) at FMS International Dental Clinic gave him an appointment on 16 February.
Laxmi Narayana was at the clinic, on time. And he was very excited.
No sooner had the procedure begun than his dad received a call that he should rush to see his son.
When he reached the clinic, he saw his son dead. Sad.
Laxmi Narayana’s father alleged that he died of an anesthesia overdose.
An investigation is on to determine what caused the sudden death of his son Laxmi Narayana.
The irony is no one knew Laxmi was visiting the clinic and he went to see the doctor for a job as little as improving his smile.
The bride is inconsolable.
RIP!
