The atmosphere warms up for a story to unwind. The story of the wedding in the hills. In olden days the Muthuvan marriage custom - or Penneduppu in local dialect - was a celebration for the entire village, an affair lasting several days. As part of tradition, the bride’s friends playfully hid her in the thick forest around the hamlet. The hapless groom had to quickly use his wits. With a band of trusted friends, he needed to scour the densely wooded hills for his bride, or risk mockery. Meanwhile, the bride’s friends were sly in playing the game. They deliberately misguided the groom’s group by singing ‘aashapattu’, a local wedding song while drawing the bride even further away. He faced the dangers of the forest and wildlife, sometimes for several days, to just ask for her hand. Once he finds his wife-to-be, the marriage was presided over by the bridesmaids in the forest itself. Ornaments and sarees were exchanged and they were officially married. Blessed by nature in deep dark forest, the couple spent the night there and returned to their village the next day to seek the blessing of the elders. Come experience a destination wedding of one of its kind, a tradition that is timeless and a couple purely in love. It is truly a wedding made in heaven. Virtual Bharat. A 1000 film journey, one story at a time.
