Even amid the pandemic, the weddings in the country have been in full swing! And a common trend among these weddings is getting ‘XYZ ki dulhan’ on nikkah dupattas, as if people attending wouldn’t have known the man’s name.
Seeing a rise in the trend, a twitter user questioned the need for such dupattas:

And the internet stands divided as usual, here’s what people had to say:
i mean why write anything on the dupatta at all? saw this perfectly beautiful nikkah dress but its dupatta said “QUBOOL HAI” in such a huge font please 😭😭😭 banner lagwana hai tou background mein lagwa lou dulhan ko kyun pehna rahay hoooo

Mines going to say “I did it for the clothes”

True…
this aside even the aesthetics of such dupattas are very questionable

If I knew we could write stuff on the dupatta I'd have written Boss Bitch on mine
