Meet The Dulhas: This Same-Sex Couple’s Shaadi Pics Are Breaking Stereotypes As Well As The Internet

While pride month might be over, we are happy to report that we still see rainbow flags everywhere on the ‘Gram. Recently, we stumbled upon the wedding pictures of same-sex couple Abhishek Ray and Chaitanya Sharma and we are in awe of their dreamy shaadi. The couple exchanged vows in a beautiful ceremony attended by their close friends and family earlier this week in Kolkata.

The videos and pictures from their ceremony are now going viral on social media and NGL, we are feeling single AF after looking at the grooms. Take a look at their heartwarming photos that will give you all the feels:

We are not crying, you are! As novelist George Sand once famously said, “There is only one happiness in this life, to love and be loved,” and Abishek and Chaitanya’s pictures just proved that.

In an interview, Abhishek shared, “Our community has always craved inclusion. People live-in or perform small functions at home when they want to stay together. When we decided to marry, I told Chaitanya to do it in a way that remains memorable for our friends and family.”

“A gay marriage can’t get registered yet in India. “A same-sex relationship in India is not legal yet but it is not a criminal offence either,” the groom added.

From exchanging varmala to saat pheras, Abhishek and Chaitanya followed all the traditional rituals on their D-day. For the couple, the most heartwarming part of the ceremony was the reaction of the priest who married them. Ray revealed that the purohit called them ‘torchbearers of society’ and helped them to understand the importance of every ritual.

While India struck down a colonial-era law that criminalised gay sex in 2018, same-sex marriages are yet to be recognised in the country. However, in the last few years more and more homosexual couples have tied the knot and proved to the world that love always wins.

We wish Abhishek and Chaitanya a life full of happiness and love. BRB, scrolling through their Instagram feeds for some #lovespiration.
