A matchmaker banned the family of a girl earning Rs 11 lakh. They wanted a groom from his own caste who earned Rs 1 crore annually. The agency refused to provide service considering this demand to be greedy, which reflects the expectations of increasing salary in marriage.
Everyone knows how difficult it has become these days to find a boy or girl for marriage. Sometimes boys are not found, sometimes girls. But many times relationships do not materialize because the demand is skyrocketing. Especially, the expectations of girls regarding the salary of boys have increased a lot. Even salaries worth lakhs have started seeming less. Whether the girl earns herself or not, the groom must be ‘super rich’. For this reason many relationships break even before they are formed.
Matchmaker shared his experience
One such story has been shared by Ondrila Kapoor, founder of ‘The Date Crew’ on Instagram. He told how he had to ban a client from his service. Ondrila said, ‘We have banned a 28-year-old Bengali Brahmin girl. Her family had given us a profile in which it was told that the girl earns Rs 11 lakh annually.
Initially the condition of the family was that the boy should be of their own caste and his salary should be Rs 25 to 50 lakh per year (i.e. around Rs 4 lakh per month). Ondrila said, ‘We showed many profiles according to their choice, but every time they kept rejecting on some pretext or the other. We found this very strange.
investigation in case of doubt
‘When we became suspicious, we asked the girl what kind of boys she liked and asked her to send some sample profiles. We were blown away after seeing the profiles that the girl sent. The salary of all those boys was more than Rs 1 crore.
Ondrila further said, ‘Our doubt turned into belief. When we first talked to the girl, she made the excuse that these boys look very smart and attractive, there is no question of salary.
The ‘caste boy’ who earns Rs 1 crore
After this the agency talked to the girl’s parents. Then it became clear that they wanted a boy of their own caste who earns Rs 1 crore annually. Ondrila Kapoor said, ‘This demand seemed very greedy to us. So we banned that client from our matchmaking service.
What did people say?
Ondrila also told that he had also contacted the boys earning Rs 1 crore, whose profiles had been sent by the girl. But when he came to know about this demand of the girl’s family, he flatly refused the relationship because he felt that the family was very greedy.
Oendrila shared this story on his Instagram handle oendrila.kapoor, after which there was a flood of comments. Many people are sharing their experiences of such high demands regarding salary in marriage. At the same time, some people say that not only girls, boys also have similar expectations.
