There has been a noticeable increase recently in the practice of people dancing inside the metro, train platforms, and other public areas. One couple, though, took things a step further and tied the knot while the train was moving. The couple decided to have their wedding on a speeding train, adding a distinctive twist to the popular trend of destination weddings. The couple can be seen performing the wedding rituals in front of several cheering passengers in a video of the unconventional ceremony.
The video shared was captioned, ”Wedding on the moving train. Wow wow wow.”
The bride and groom are seen exchanging varmalas at the beginning of the video, and then the groom ties a mangal sutra around the bride’s neck. The crowd cheers as the bride gets emotional touches the groom’s feet and hugs him. According to some accounts, this unusual ceremony took place on an Asansol-Jasidih train.

”Budget kam hoga, warna plane mein karte (the budget must be limited, or else they would do it on a plane),” one user said.
Another person made the observation, “Why make getting married so easy, and divorce such a painful process?” Why should a couple file for divorce in court when they can get married on a moving train?
