In a story that can aptly called ‘Jab Sheru Weds Sweety’, a Gurugram couple got their pet dogs Sheru and Sweety married with Hindu rituals.

The unique and heartwarming development comes from Gurugram’s Jile Singh Colony in Palam Vihar Extension where Sheru and Sweety tied a knot in a ‘pawwsome’ marriage ceremony that had rituals like ‘haldi’, ‘mehendi’ and even ‘saathpheras’.

For the unique union of two pets, Raja and his wife Rani had as many as 100 guests invited who witnessed gala festivities which included a ladies sangeet, a baraat, and of course – the wedding.

Further, for officiating the union of the two pets, a priest has also been asked to bless the couple. Like any Hindu marriage, the people involved have distributed clothes, utensils, and other gifts among family members.

The celebrations took place the supervision of Mr Raja. Raja, a tea seller, had adopted a female dog three years ago and named it ‘Sweety’. Meanwhile, Raja’s neighbour Ram Sevak, also raised a male dog called ‘Sheru’.

When Ram Sevak brought up the idea of a ‘Sheru Weds Sweety’ situation, Raja laughed it off. Later, Raja himself thought that it must be seen through and thus, laid down a plan of having the pets married.
