One of her close friends lives in the US. She had fallen in love with a boy who lives in India and desperately wanted to get married to him. At her invitation, the boy, along with his parents, arrived in the US to meet her parents and seek her hand in marriage. But that is where the problems began.

Her parents weren’t interested in getting her married to this boy. So they refused. Vidhya and her parents tried to talk to the girl’s parents in the US. That didn’t help much either.

So, one day, the friend took a flight to India. All the marriage arrangements were ready and in place. Vidhya’s father performed the Kanyadaanam on her parents’ behalf and the marriage concluded.

Vidhya sure is a friend in deed!
