Arranged marriage, personal choice: An Indian groom's perspective- with Smit Banker (India)
Hi Everyone,
Please welcome with me Smit Banker from India. Smit was born and raised in India and decided to move abroad to continue his studies. He came to New Zealand in 2018 and stayed here ever since.
In this episode we will talk about a very sensitive topic: Arranged marriage!
Disclaimer:
There are still a lot of forced arranged marriages out there and I do not support this!
We are only talking about Smits point of view, his experience and his thoughts about it!
According to https://gitnux.org/arranged-marriages-statistics/ 55% of marriages worldwide are arranged. 90% of marriages are arranged in India.
Smit will talk about his way of growing up in India and what personal characteristics he thinks have played a role in the fact that he agreed to have an arranged marriages.
The younger generation is wanting more and more "love marriages" (as they call it) but I have met a few who found comfort in the idea of having an arranged marriage. So, Smit is answering some of my questions around this topic and explains his situation as a freshly engaged man.
He is also talking about his expectations of living abroad and what differences and similarities he has discovered.
