A Pakistani groom received a unique 10-meter high garland made with banknotes of different denominations from his brother from the Bhakkar region. To prepare the wedding accessory, the groom's brother used around 2,000 currency notes worth around PKR 1 lakh (about Rs 30,000), The Daily Guardian reported.
It was manufactured using 200 notes of PKR 75 and 1,700 of PKR 50 in the Kotla Jam area of Pakistan's Punjab region. The wedding gift became a topic of discussion after a video went viral on social media. The clip starts with a group of people carrying the streamer to the location.
In addition to the banknotes, it also contained flowers and colorful ribbons. When the groom entered, we saw two people gently placing the garland around his neck and then clicking pictures.
The viral video was shared by many on X and Instagram, drawing mixed reactions from social media users.
“Anything can happen in Pakistan,” one wrote on Instagram, while another joked: “He carries the GDP of the entire country.”
This wasn't the first time the video of a man carrying a huge garland went viral. Earlier, a groom was seen carrying an impressive 30-foot garland, also made entirely of banknotes.
The video was shared on Instagram from FHM Pakistan. The caption of the video read, “A Punjabi groom recently went viral for donning an impressive 30 feet high garland made entirely of rupee notes worth Rs. 500,000 at his wedding”.
Not so long ago in India, a groom was seen chasing a thief who allegedly stole a few notes from his wedding garland. The UP groom even climbed into a moving mini truck to catch the thief.
