In a touching display of love and determination, a young couple from kerala’s Alappuzha went ahead with their wedding on Friday, not in a decorated auditorium, but in a hospital room after the bride was injured in a road accident nearly hours before the ceremony.
Avani, the bride, was travelling back from a beauty parlour near Thanneermukkom when the car she was travelling in met with an accident.
She sustained a spinal injury and a fracture in her leg.
She was initially rushed to the Kottayam Medical College and later shifted to a private
hospital in Kochi.
The wedding was scheduled to be held at 12:12 p.m. at the Shakti Auditorium in Alappuzha, with the auspicious ‘muhurtam’ falling between 12:12 and 12:25 p.m.
Even as the accident sparked panic among both families, doctors confirmed that Avani’s condition was stable and not life-threatening.
In an extraordinary decision, the families chose not to postpone the ceremony.
Instead, they decided to conduct the wedding inside the hospital, ensuring the couple tied the knot within the planned auspicious time.
