This is the wedding season in south Asia (especially Pakistan, India and Bangladesh) and among all other things we can not miss the importance of first night and ‘troubles’ of this night. After all long lasting traditional events the newly married couple makes their way to their bedroom in the hope of – well – privacy, but they get shocked because of the different plans mapped out by the friends and family. The most common one is to delay the couple from entering the room when they are dying to do so. Below are the few examples to describe the situation one can face.

Says Lekha Mohan, “At a cousin’s wedding we just didn’t let my BIL go his room and made him drink till 6 am,” she chuckles.

Subir Malik says: “After attending a friend’s wedding in Kolkata, I kept calling him every five minutes till almost midnight, till he finally switched his phone off.

Nidhi Goel, remembers how she troubled her brother on his wedding night.

“We placed condoms in every corner of his room! It just put them off.”

Leaving remote controlled cars, squeaky toys and stinking onions are, of course, other alternatives. So be careful folks!
