Huda and Maneet tied the knot in Dubai earlier this year. But their love story is not as simple as that. Huda is a Pakistani Muslim, and Maneet,an Indian Jain – and therein lay the problem.
They dated for four years before letting their parents know they wanted to be married. But the path to the wedding aisle was not straight, to say the least.
Maneet’s parents told him to either choose his family or Huda. The families’ disapproval was so staunch that it nearly broke the couple’s spirit. But they were adamant on having their parents on board before going ahead with the alliance (DDLJ, anyone?).
The resultant beach wedding in Dubai, with both their parents looking happy and content is stuff of dreams.
