The bride, Jyotika calls herself an academician, a professor and someone who holds a great interest in writing articles and reciting poems. Theirs is a love marriage, but there was nothing like Raj, Simran of DDLJ nor it is a “love at first sight” kind of a story. So, what happened was that these two techies met at a conference and developed respect for each other. She said:
“Respect was like a common bone on our plate that we both preserved for each other.”
And then, gradually this beautiful damsel and smart, fashionable and humorous technical geek from IIT Bombay fell for each other.
This is what defines them as a couple:
“We both see ourselves putting efforts to understand each other’s nature and simply moving on to explore varied aspects of life. Watching theatre, attending poetry events, going to watch the different dance forms, music festivals, exploring new dishes in different restaurants, filling our shelves with new books all the time, writing humorous poems and articles, reciting poems for each other are few of the activities that define us as a couple together.”

We luckily both share a common definition for the word “Travel”, for us it means to step out and meet new people around. By meeting new people we do not mean to say hanging out with them over a glass of wine rather we love storytellers and we also call ourselves as storytellers of stories that define varied experiences of life.”
The engagement ceremony took place at Madhuban Hotel in Greater Kailash-1, New Delhi. The bride chose to wear Astha and Sidharth label that grabbed many compliments. The outfit was a true amalgamation of South Indian and Western attire. It was an ethnic heavy flared yellow silk gown with an angrakaha style with a gotta patti work that added a graceful touch to it. Also, red Banarasi silk dupatta was added to take the outfit more towards ethnicity.
She completed her entire look with the Temple jewellery that she purchased from Tamil Nadu Emporium, Connaught Place, New Delhi. The jewellery gave her a complete look of a South Indian bride, and the gown pattern gave it a western look. The bride said:
“A fusion of two cultures in the outfit was very comfortable to carry and gave me all the confidence to stay happy on the important day of my life.”
The bride gushed:
“Excitement was always surrounding me during the preparations as it was the time of the year when I spent most of the time with my mom. Being ethnic lovers we explored many handicrafts and handloom exhibitions, cottage industries, different state emporiums and dastkar exhibitions. Endless talks and discussions with mom were like an icing on the cake.”
