The celebration was huge, attended by big names, and decked out with lavish decorations.
Interestingly, at their engagement six months earlier, the bride's family had already gifted a Mahindra Thar and ₹31 lakh in cash.
Viral video sparks dowry debate

Some people said it was just Meher, an Islamic tradition where the groom gives gifts to the bride, but many others called for legal action and tax checks given how extravagant it was.
