Their daughter studied engineering, was a meritorious student, met a kerala xtian in college..love happened. Hindu parents ready to accept but xtian parents brainwashed the girl to convert. She converted..her mother was so upset that she has asked her not to visit temples.. Relationship between them are formal..for basics.
Second case..
Engineering college alumni get together of my husband..2 old friends meet..
One a Malayali Hindu another a Manglorean xtian..their children meet too! The Hindu daughter a gold medallist and the boy a grad engineer..
Love happened..
Girls parents again ready to accept for the sake of the daughters happiness..
Boys mother brain washes..girl discreetly converts without telling anyone..
Parents severed all relations with her..mother suffered a heart attack but survived..
Mother is a double Phd and a scholar..she is so full of guilt that she keeps blaming herself..says her education didnt help keep her child safe..
Not logical in my opinion but she feels she didnt devote right amount of time in the right way for her child
Third case
Kerala Xtian parents both scientists
Their daughter meets a Hindu Maharastrian boy..
In management college..
He was an only child to hardworking ordinary middle class parents..
Love happens..girl's mother brainwashes boy to convert..the excuse being daughter wants a church wedding &it cant happen unless he converts
The boy has since not seen his parents...its 6 years now..
Fourth case
Tamizh Hindu boy an artist and a talented graphic designer with a well known ad agency..met a Tamizh Xtian girl who happened to work in the same office building..love happened..
Girls mother who is in the business of converting in Bangalore managed to convert him.. Boys father an army man..was so aggrieved he severed all ties..mother died ofshock..
Fifth case
Kerala Muslim boy..Oriya brahmin girl ko patatha hai..both students at a univin UK..girls father a civil servant..
Tried his best to change the girls mind..
Boys parents quickly moved in, converted her and conducted a nikaah in London..
Sixth case
Hindu Tamizh brahmin girl..Bihari muslim boy...peeche hi pad gaya..
Married & after 2 kids he married again..when she protested was thrown out after the famous utterance of TTT..
She committed suicide..leaving behind a 4 year old girl & a year oldboy..she took this extreme step because she felt ashamed, cheated and couldnt reconcile to facing her parents..
Seventh case
A Hindu Gujarathi girl eloped with a
Bengali muslim who it turned out was a refugee/
infiltrator from Bangladesh.. He dumped her but her parents saved her..she went counselling and is today trying her best to put her life together..
These are cases personally known to me.. some of them happened right in front of us
We have seen the parents grieving. As a mother I feel nothing is more important than mychildren..I want them to be safe, healthy and happy..a flying career and moneyis usually not in the list of a mother's priorities..those r add ons..
Thus personally the ad by Tanishq was in very bad taste, completely false and it carried the potential to be a dangerous INFLUENCER
Parents these days have to have a continuous communication with their children whether son or daughter. Children have to be aware of the perils of an inter community marriage
especially if there is persistence to convert..
Such a partnership is doomed right from the start.. where then is the love???
Some of the parents who I hv mentioned above have been dear to us, it has been a heart wrenching experience for me as a friend/relative..so I can imagine..
how challenging it must have been for the parents..
Children need to empathise with their parents too..it cant always be a I, Me,Myself..
Love should not be blind always..😊
