This is a twist that only a thriller movie would provide because of how mad and betraying it made the man that had married the woman under false Hindu Brahmin identity- as Nikita feel.

The clue, sudden and dreadful, was revealed not by lines or by inquiry--but by one almost unconscious word:

The bride uttering - Ya Allah in the home of her in-laws a few days after her wedding.

And therewith, the mask fell.

A Wedding based on False Promise

It began as many arranged marriages in India do--through a matchmaker in the locality and localities. The man who was to become the groom and his family were made to meet the girl, Nikita, a shy, less talkative apparently traditional Brahmin girl with good cultural values.

She had a clear backstory, her demeanor was humble and her family were said to be settled well. The couple appeared to be an ideal match.

The wedding was given in the rituals, people and pomp. Nothing was suspected by any one The role suited Nikita, as he performed all the ceremonies accurately and with a lot of ease.

The next thing, however, was not the beginning of a fairy tale--it was the beginning of a con.

The Slip Of The Tongue That Changed Everything

Not even a week old in her nuptials, the bride was heard saying ye Allah under her breath, which she did whilst all by herself in her room. It was a phrase that cut through a very orthodox household and even more so, it carried the voice of a person who was believed to be a Brahmin.

The mother of the groom heard her and accused her of not knowing what she was talking about. Nikita did not want to take it too seriously and attributed it to a tongue slip.

However, within the following two days, there started to emerge other cracks. She did not attend temples, did not know much about Hindu practices and rituals and was not ready to take part in some of those rituals.

Doubts were raised and the family made up its mind to do some digging.

It Unfolds the Truth

What they discovered was mind-blowing This was not her real name (Nikita) The child was not a Brahmin, not a member of the group she said she belonged to. Her identity, her background, and even the address that she gave were all untrue.

The groom had been totally misled along with his family members.

This prompted them to prepare overwhelming evidence to follow up before this woman could run away with jewelry, cash, and valuables that belonged to the groom. Three lakhs lost and a marriage becomes a complete nightmare.

Their intimate relationship was meant to be sacred but it turned out to be a betrayal, theft, and an emotional trauma.

Police Investigation In Progress

The family of the groom has lodged an FIR and the police are looking to track the woman and her possible associates.

Initial research indicates that this was not an isolated case but instead it could be part of a bigger scam of marriage whereby ladies pose themselves as someone they are not to get into a marriage with the aim of looting and disappearing with their spouses.

Usually, such cons may escape notice or reporting because it is stigmatized but this one in Indore has opened it up.

A Kick in the Head

It is not a tale of interfaith relations or religious differences-it is a tale of fraud, deception, and how negative emotions are now being packaged as interfaith bullets being delivered on the e-way. Loving should not be manipulated but be based on truth.

The groom in Indore is left to collect what life he has left feeling that he thought he was starting out his life with a genuine person.

Instead, he has gone through legal actions, economic damage but worst of all the emotional damage of being cheated on by the person you trust to be in the closest union a man can be in which is marriage.

The lesson here is this: Care must be taken no matter how tempting a person may appear to be because in the end results do speak volumes.
