Having written about Girls, now its time to write about newly married Guys, just to maintain the balance:
(1) Bracelets... Most of the guys wear this on the day of their marriage for the first time in their life. If a Guy appears with new bracelet, chain and rings(probably on both the hands), for sure, he is a newly married guy.
(2) Wrist Watch... I wonder when this tradition came in. Definitely the in-laws will get a new watch for the Guy. And some Guys protect this watch more than the Girl they married. In earlier days, the Guys should have got a good HMT winding watch. A couple of years back, a good Titan watch used to be the standard and normally it will be a Gold colored one. But things have changed now... I was surprised to find that the cost of the watches got for the Guy runs to several thousands of rupees, and sometimes several tens of thousands. And those watches have all the features that you can think of. It has a thermomter, pressure meter, altimeter, speedometer, ammeter, voltometer, tachometer, auto-meter, taxi-meter and any other meter that you can think of :). I even have a doubt that the father-in-law sometimes even set a small chip with a transmitter in the watch, which keeps sending signals and messages to him through which he spies his son-in-law(Proof will be provided on request). I have 2 questions related to this:
-1- Why only analog watches(watches with hands) are given? Why digital watches which can accomodate even more features are not given???
-2- In this electronic age, where every gadget shows time, why still wrist watches are given to the Guy. Why not an i-pod, or i-phone, or a ultra-modern mobile phone???
(3) Coat & Suit... The guy will get have a coat&suit (probably the first one in his life and the only one for many in their life).
(4) He will always be roaming around with a foolish smile...
(5) These days the Guy gets a bike during marriage itself. His old, if he ever has one can be exchanged for perichambalam (dates). Most of the father-in-laws hand over this bike with a the condition that the pillion should always be reserved for his daughter... And the transmitter in the wrist watch will send a message to him, if he ever happens to dis-obey this request(or order).
(6) The Girl... Wherever he goes, a new girl will be accompanying him. He will be happy and proud to have such a company. As time passes, time will teach him, that this company is the source for most of the troubles in his life...
Disci: Readers are advised not to get serious about the points listed above, especially point (6)...
