Being an Indian, Hindu, and married for nearly 25 years, I also did not know all these things.

I have no problem and I don't mind.

But it will differentiate me from my other friends here, which is not desirable.

You call me AK.

A quote from my favorite writer - Mark Twain:

" Age is an issue of mind over matter. If you don't mind, it does not matter. "

I hope she starts to wear it soon as it does not feel right what with her being the "traditional daughter in law "

She was supposed to get married to Shivam... So when he left all huffing and puffing...he took the Mangal sutra with him...😊 I have a question : who brings the Mangal sutra? Is it bought by the bride or the groom's side of the family?

@Sabrina: Usually it is the groom's family that brings it. It was the same in my Mum's case as well, my Dad and his Mum chose it.

thanks Kashish...I didn't know...maybe Pankhuri didn't want to wear the Mangalsutra bought by Shivam...and she may wear one in future when Adi gives her one (like Sharna predicted)😊
