Kshama Bindu shared pictures of the various ceremonies including the haldi and mehendi on Instagram, where she is seen in the company of her family and friends.
A 24-year-old woman in Gujarat's Vadodara had created a nationwide buzz last week when she announced that she would be marrying herself on June 11. Kshama Bindu preponed the event and married herself at a private event today. She claims that she is the first Indian to marry herself.
She decided to prepone the event to steer clear of any controversy. She had planned to marry herself at a temple in the area on June 11 and arranged for a priest to solemnise the marriage with traditional Vedic rituals but changed the plans after the priest backed off, Kshama Bindu told reporters.
"I finally got married to myself at my home on Wednesday evening in the presence of some select friends. To avoid any more controversy, I preponed my wedding. Even the priest backed off following the controversy," she said.
She shared pictures of the various ceremonies including the haldi and mehendi on Instagram, where she is seen in the company of her family and friends.
