SWAYAMVAR

Of late, My Mother has been worried and also active! Now, when does anyone get affected with the mentioned symptoms? Is it some sort of stress disorder? Some Allopathy side effects? Some Homeopathic  bullshit? Menopause? Wait! Maybe, it's the Venkatachalapathy effect!

Well! That wasn't the case! 

She's been on the hunt for some girls! 

I was shaken! 

"Amma? I am off to Hyderabad only! It's not 'bad', ok!! Rombo over ah illa??"

Now, she was shocked!

"I am not searching for you Eruma Madu! Chi Kalambu!"

Now I was disappointed. 

Cha! WTK?

You don't want your parents to fiddle around with your personal life! It's just not cool. But, when you find out that they aren't actually bothered about it, you get the creeps! You begin to wonder....

A slap on the face! My intellect intervened! Life's is not always about you! So, just shut up and analyse!

So I did! Many of my relatives did not get alliances! To be exact, 3 of them are above 30! In India, if you are above 30 and single, it's literally a pain in the ass. These 'righteous' men chose not to flout the 'society norms'. Well either they were really unlucky, and would not have gotten anywhere, irrespective of the ethics behind it. Or, maybe an epiphany awaits them! Either way, it's a misery! A misery, which would haunt them for the rest of their lives! 

I obviously would have a biased opinion on my uncles. But, what does the world want? Usually, when the elders look for the alliance, they'd look at many relevant and important factors! 

Unfortunately, today, to some of our brothers and sisters, what's important is:

1. Astrological Match (It's apparently still relevant today)

2. Bank Account Balance of the Groom.

3. Job Security

4. An Individual House

5. Looks

I am not generalizing anything! The above points are peculiar yet special cases! It would definitely, one day, become general cases! The future is indeed gloom. 

So, am I worried about myself? Did I make any mistakes by not finding my soul mate in school or college? 

Well, I still have 4 months of my college life left! :P :P Maybe, I should find someone.

Or, Maybe, I should let the 'norms' take the course! But, the problem is, 'Maybe'

Will We win the Swayamvar? 

Let the battle begin. 

Where's My Sita?
