In a bizarre incident in Uttar Pradesh, India, a groom arrived for his wedding day heavily drunk and later hid behind the wedding stage to smoke cannabis. Feeling humiliated, the bride decided to call off the wedding, resulting in her family holding the groom's relatives hostage for the return of the 800,000 rupees (approximately 310,000 NTD) in dowry. The police were involved as the situation escalated, highlighting cultural differences in Indian weddings where the bride's family bears most expenses and the seriousness attached to the ceremony.
