It can only be felt in the eyes of her dad, in the smile of your brother and in the hug of your mother.

And, this ritual alone can evoke millions of emotions in every girl's mind. While no one has ever debated about this wedding ceremony, there is a father in Kolkata that made a difference by refusing to do the kanyadaan.
