Overseas groom showers Rs50 million on guests at Sialkot wedding

SIALKOT: In a spectacular display of wealth, guests at an overseas Pakistani wedding in the Sialkot district were showered with currency notes, with over 50 million Pakistani rupees and foreign currency being distributed.

As per the media reprots, the groom’s friends and family arranged special containers in the wedding hall to ensure that currency notes were thrown around during the festivities.

As the wedding procession left the scattered village, the groom’s brothers and friends began throwing currency notes along the way.

The tradition continued as more notes were scattered throughout the venue upon reaching the wedding hall in Sambrial.
