    Wonderful act of kindness. This shows that man doesn't become rich by money or power rather every small deed of kindness raises him up in front of God as well as his fellow human being. God Bless him and his family and all the couples of this occassion.

    when entire world is feeling the pinch of financial crisis, and cash crisis, US and other great countries are facing the wrath of nature fury against what they have done in the last 10 years, Kanachur Monu is real example for those who wants to show off, for all those people who take loans(never pays) for their marriage. Money will not buy every thing - some times great steps you take are example and should be remember in the life time - and middle class people should take lesson from this.
