She is not an ordinary person. She is in a position to be able to influence the economy with her decisions. Her decision is powerful enough to turn the table upside down. Many might doubt whether Finance Ministers can make decisions easily when there is a powerful Prime Minister in the form of Narendra Modi. But the Union Finance Minister is not a normal portfolio. We can imagine the buzz if there is a wedding ceremony in people’s houses who are in such powerful positions. But a wedding became the talk of the town with low-key marriage.
Usually, we see a lot of buzz and massive arrangements for weddings in high-profile people’s houses. Contrary to this, the Nirmala Sitharaman and Parakala Prabhakar couple stunned many by performing their daughter Vangmayi at their house. The ceremony was performed simplistically. Surprisingly no celebrities from the political arena or others attended the wedding. It is said that no politician was invited to the wedding that happened on Wednesday.
Vangmayi tied the knot with Pratik Doshi who is from Gujarat. The wedding ceremony was performed as per the Brahmin traditions. Seers from the Admar Mutt in Udupi performed the wedding as per the traditions. The Sitharaman couple did not announce the news of their wedding. The news broke out when pictures from the ceremony were out on social media. Vangmayi is working as a feature writer for Mint Lounge’s Books and Culture section. Earlier she wrote features for The Hindu. She completed her MS in Journalism from the Medill School of Journalism, Northwestern University. Netizens are impressed with the wedding style and are appreciating her. They say that she would have opted for a massive wedding if she wanted. But she preferred a traditional and simple wedding.
