The pandit gives instructions too fast and everyone pretends to understand
Someone says ‘I hope you’ll be next’ in a prophetic tone
Buffet line gossip
An aunty fixes your saree mid-conversation
Gets emotional and tells you how they 'remember when you were this small.'
Phone goes off during the rituals
Forced small talk with someone who absolutely remembers you but you don’t remember them
‘Shh shh shh’ travels through the rows like a wave
Someone tells you your pleats/pallu are perfect… and then adjusts them anyway.
The couple exchanges one tiny glance and everyone goes ‘Awwww.’
'When are you moving to the Bay Area?'
Auntie says your saree looks ‘so rich’ and asks who picked it.
Someone flexes their kids’ achievements like a pitch deck
You’re told to shower the couple with akshanthalu, but your handful is way too aggressive
Someone says “You should meet my friend's son"...Ivy League, finance… elite circle!
Relative gives a running commentary of the rituals
