Ajay Barot has dreamed of a lavish wedding ceremony in accordance with all Indian traditions since early childhood. The guy even wanted to get married ahead of time, but for a long time child marriages in the country are considered illegal. According to the law, boys have the right to marry from the age of 21, girls from the age of 18.

However, the years went by, and the contenders for the role of a life partner Ajay was still missing. When the guy turned 27, he finally lost faith that he would one day fulfill his dream. The recent wedding ceremony of his cousin added fuel to the fire — a chic wedding with many guests, various treats and entertainment. Everything he once wanted for himself…

Together, they managed to collect about 200 thousand rupees (more than 180 thousand rubles), which by Indian standards is a huge amount. The man spent all this money on a gorgeous wedding ceremony, at which there was literally everything except ... the bride.

According to Ajay's relatives, he was unlucky in love because of an intellectual development disorder. The boy's mother died when he was still an infant, and a few years later doctors diagnosed the child with a disorder caused by the asymmetry of the hemispheres of the brain. In other words, the boy was developing very poorly — he could not read, write, memorized information poorly, had problems with coordination.

Therefore, there were very few chances that Ajay would meet his love and play a real wedding in the future…

The young man's father did not regret his act. He is very glad that he was able to give his son a sense of celebration.

Judging by the photos, Ajay himself was not at all embarrassed by the absence of the bride at the wedding. The main thing is that all the other attributes were at his ceremony — the groom's chic outfit, 200 guests, a huge table with delicious dishes, songs and dances.
