本周一位印度新郎在婚礼上玩失踪，一名参加婚礼的宾客挺身而出娶了新娘。

根据《星报》对泰米尔地区日报《马来西亚南班》的翻译，新郎是23岁的Ponradha，来自泰米尔纳德邦的Lakshmimanagaram小镇，原定在本周三和35岁的新娘Sithiraivelu结婚。

The festivities were already starting on Tuesday evening when the bride's family learned the groom had vanished after an argument with his family. According to the Times of India, "the bride's family went into a frenzy, as a stopped marriage would affect the girl's future."

婚礼庆祝仪式从周二晚上就开始了，但新娘的家人却得知新郎在跟家人吵架后就玩失踪了。根据《印度时报》的报道，“这个消息让新娘的家人暴怒，因为在印度，临时取消婚礼会影响女孩的名声和前途。”

万幸的是有一位参加婚礼的宾客，30岁的女方亲戚Sivakumar 自告奋勇站出来，表示愿意娶新娘。根据《印度时报》的报道：
