A couple's special day turned into a nightmare when the bride, all dressed up in her wedding fineries for the rituals, was dragged out by her mother, brother, and cousins as she screamed and screeched and fought to resist the attempted kidnapping.
The dramatic event was caught on camera and showed several people at the venue trying to stop the bride's family from dragging her out. In the video, the bride, in a yellow saree for one of the wedding rituals, is dragged by her relatives as the groom's family tries to intervene. Soon, a man throws some red powder, later found to be ground chilli, on those resisting them. The bride kicks and screams as she is dragged across the room. One of the men is seen leaping on her to hold her back as they fall to the ground. Then another man pulls the woman across the floor by her hand as she cries and yells.
The incident took place in Kadiam in Andhra Pradesh's East Godavari district.
