“Love has no gender – compassion has no religion – character has no race.” – Abhijit Naskar
We all love a beautiful wedding photoshoot, don’t we? Recently, a photoshoot of a same-sex couple from New York is going viral over the internet and it’s the most heartwarming thing you will see today. What’s special about it? Well, the lesbian couple in the pictures is originally from two different countries – India and Pakistan! This couple has not only broken the barrier of gender but has also overcome the obstacle of religion.
The two women Anjali Chakra (a Hindu originally from India) and Sundas Malik (a Muslim artist from Pakistan) released pictures from the photoshoot on Twitter. The pictures were posted by their photographer @Sarowarrrr along with the caption, “A New York Love Story.”
These loved-up pictures of the gorgeous lovebirds will melt your heart!
These pictures are truly precious, aren’t they?
The lovebirds wore ethnic outfits for the photoshoot along with bindis, nose pins and traditional jewellery. Sundas donned a mint green lehenga while Anjali wore a blush pink saree. Both looked stunning against the backdrop of the picturesque New York City.
These pictures are so heartwarming that Twitterati couldn’t stop showering love and admiration on these beautiful women.
Incidentally, it is Sundas and Anjali’s one year anniversary today. Anjali took to Twitter and posted a beautiful message for her beloved. She wrote, “Happy anniversary to the girl who taught me how to love & be loved ❤️”

Sundas posted the same pictures on Instagram and expressed how grateful she was to have found Anjali as her one true love: “I grew up witnessing and watching different kinds of love, some in my family and some in bollywood. After I got a little older and realized what my sexuality was, I never saw representation of people who looked like me. I’m so glad I have the opportunity to be that with the love of my life. Happy one year, babyjaan! God blessed me with you 5 days before my born day hehe :* 💛 #072018”
Sharing some candid pictures of the duo, Sundas shared their love story with the Insta fam: “Anjali has changed me in ways I could’ve never imagined. Her love is constant, she waters me and I grow. Everything about our first hangout to our first date to our first kiss has been romantic beyond comparison. I still remember the first month I met Anjali, I didn’t write for a month. I couldn’t find the right words to describe how her presence in my life made me feel. We’ve been through a lot over these past few months, stuck in between spaces and weird transition phases. But we always try with each other, we choose each other. I’m certain I’ve known Anjali in a past life.. I somehow intuitively always knew the love of my life’s name would start with an A and here she is. I adorn every second of every minute of everyday where I get to share my moments with this ambitious capricorn doofus head.”
Sundas and Anjali are truly lucky to have found each other.
