Indian Love: Now and Then
October 12th, 2009 - No Comments - Category: Fall in Love
The real life stories are not like movie stories, there may be some couples, who relate their love story to the movie stories. But in reality every love story doesn’t lead to happy ending. even if they get married to each other successfully, the complications, ego feelings if any or domination will lead to break up or divorce.
Love is not about counting years of love. Your love/relation may be old enough to be recognised as the most long lasting love, or unbreakable love. but how far do you really think there is good understanding between each-other in love.
There are innumerable successful love stories in this world, some of the most famous love stories that entered into the books are:Romeo and Juliet, Laila – Majnu, Devdas – Paro, Shah Jahan and Mumtaz. and many more to list.
There wasn’t any concept of break-up as such, once a couple decides to get along, then they would actually wait for their marriage, Proposing a girl was like asking her to marry,
The system of marriages are also changing with the time, previously the marriages used to take place by getting engaged the bride and the groom from the same caste or same relation or religion. Marrying a person from another caste was a sin in olden days.
Any person falling in love with another caste or other religion person, would result in violence between the two families or communities. This type of scenario was much more serious between Hindu – Muslim, Hindu Christian and Muslim- Christian communities.
But now the time has changed and so the marriages. Marriages are travelling parallel with the trend. Every alternate boy or a girl is in love, there is no age bar, there is no caste feeling or neither financial status is considered now a days, but the long lasting love stories are hardly found.
This is how the word ‘Love’ is fading out, the one night stand, live in relationship, attraction, part time boyfriend/girlfriend culture is actually taking off the watermark of love.
This is how love is now, but for tomorrow – it is unknown.
