In Sambhal, Uttar Pradesh, a groom's attempt to lift his bride on the wedding stage sparked fury, leading to her refusal to marry. Despite her family's attempts to persuade her, the bride stood firm. This resulted in a council between the two families, which ultimately ended with the groom's side returning the dowry and leaving without a wedding.

The bride's family warmly welcomed the procession, and with music and fanfare, the rituals began, and the bride and groom ascended the stage while the guests feasted and danced to the DJ's beats. Amidst the sound of conches, the garland exchange ceremony commenced.
During the ceremony, the groom lifted the bride, which she objected to on the spot. The bride's side also expressed their disapproval of the groom's actions. Angered by the situation, the bride walked off the stage, leaving the groom trying in vain to stop her.
As relatives tried to soothe the bride, she decisively refused to marry. Through the night until Wednesday, they kept attempting to convince the bride, but she was unwavering. Not only did the bride reject the marriage, but she also sequestered the groom and two members of his party in a room. During this time, there were exchanges of heated words between the parties.

The bride's family demanded the return of the dowry, which the groom's side brought back Thursday afternoon, leading to the release of the groom and his party.
