Needless to say, divorce is still a taboo subject in many Asian countries. Couples who decide to get divorced are often judged and shamed by society. Things are especially bad for women, who are blamed for speaking up, and for leaving abusive marriages. Recently, a Pakistani woman residing in the US decided to shatter stereotypes by throwing a party to celebrate her divorce.
The video features the woman joyfully dancing to Bollywood songs in a purple lehenga as the audience cheers and hoots. In the background, balloons spelling out "Divorce Mubarak" add to the celebratory atmosphere.
A Facebook page shared the video with the caption: "If all this continues in our country, the idea of marriage will end one day."
