A bride's sister kisses groom in a video doing rounds on the internet and netizens are confused over how to react. Is it a local custom? An unconventional tradition? Or a family inspired a bit too much by Game of Thrones?
Though the origins and date of the video are unidentified, this wedding party has caught the attention of thousands online for their unusual shaadi stage shenanigans. As the family poses for a group photo, the groom is seated flanked by his new bride and her sister.
Moments pass in unmoving poses - you know how cumbersome group photos at weddings are - before the groom's sister-in-law suddenly, swiftly starts towards him and in what looks like a suffocatingly tight grip, smothers him with a kiss. Watch the video here.
