Grab a tissue, 'cz this one might just leave you in tears! In India, weddings are a beautiful blend of age-old traditions and ever-evolving trends. Amidst the crazy dance moves, wide grins and hearty laughs, the most emotional moment of the wedding comes when the bride has to bid farewell to her family. Vidaai is the ceremony that strikes a nerve of not just the bride and her family but leaves everyone teary-eyed at the wedding. Some photographers perfectly capture the emotional outburst of the family which defines why vidaai is the most emotional as well as the beautiful moment of the wedding. Back in 1997, that moment was beautifully captured when Shweta Bachchan had left the Bachchan house to live her ‘happily ever after’ with husband, Nikhil Nanda.
