One of the grooms, Kushalpal said that he too can’t afford such expenses but his father made this happen.

AGRA: Two girls from the small town of Iglas , Aligarh, had never even imagined in their wildest dreams that they would ever fly in private chopper. Their ride ('doli') in a chopper to their in laws house in Mathura thus surpassed their wildest imaginations, thanks to their father-in-law who wanted to bring them home on 'wings'.

And the fact that their father-in-law is not a multi-millionaire but just a farmer makes the story unbelievable. “I wanted to bring my daughter-in-laws to my home in style that they will never forget”, said the grooms’ father, Shivaji, who spent near about Rs 3 lakhs for hiring the chopper .

Even for Shivaji and his family, the event has become a memorable one, as huge crowds gathered both in Aligarh (for the vidai) and Mathura for receiving the brides. “Kabhi socha nahin tha ki itne log aayenge (I had never thought that so many people would come see us)”, he said.

The girls, Meera and Rekha, who hail from Badhia village , Aligarh, got married to two brothers Kushal Pal , who is in UP police, and Kaushlendra, a junior engineer in a private firm, on Tuesday and went to Mathura on Wednesday.

The girls’ father, Banwari Lal, told TOI that he is “Subedar” in the Army and he never thought that his daughter would get such a grand scale “vidai”. He said, “We are simple people and don’t have too much money to make such things happen but it’s their fate and I am happy that they have been married in a family where they are getting so much love and respect”.

One of the grooms, Kushalpal said that he too can’t afford such expenses but his father made this happen. “It’s somehow seems like a dream and I’m enjoying the limelight,” he said.
