If you've watched 'Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam', then this series of events will crack you up, and if not, then let me give you a quick background to the iconic movie. Girl falls in love with boy, but family gets her married to another guy. Husband helps wife locate her lover and even volunteers to get them married.  

A Kanpur man did something on the similar lines. This is the story of Sujit, his wife Shanti and her lover Ravi.  After being married for a month, Sujit has a suspicion that something was weird with Shanti, as she kept going to her parents' house and would often refuse to come back. She eventually explained that she was married against her wishes. Sujit then took matters into his own hands and decided to unite her with her lover and even get them married.

He got all the three families together and mutually decided to get the lovers married, which was happily solemnised. It is a rare thing indeed for people to show this humungous level of understanding. Sujit allowed himself to be friend-zoned in his own marriage, that lasted for 3 months and united the two lovers.

This is proof that marriages are actually not made in heaven, but here on Earth by human beings. It is funny that even in 2018, we are struggling to create a space for humans to co-exist where families can be more progressive and accept the choices of their children.
