UAE-based Indian businessman hosts daughter's wedding aboard flight. Ronnie Screwvala asks 'why'?
The extravagant affair saw guests dressed to the nines, exchanging vows, and revelling in the luxurious surroundings of the airborne celebration. A video of the unique wedding experience quickly made its rounds on various online platforms, sparking a mix of admiration and bewilderment.
Notably, Indian entrepreneur and film producer Ronnie Screwvala took to social media to express his bemusement.
In response to the unconventional celebration, Screwvala questioned the rationale behind hosting a wedding in such an unconventional setting. He pondered, «Why? Why would anyone invite guests to dress up for a wedding, then pack everyone like sardines in a closed space like an aircraft, and think it's a celebration? Why?»
Screwvala wondered how many would accept such an invitation and attend.
«I guess everyone’s idea of what is fun is so different… How many of you would accept this invitation and attend? Asking.
However, wishing the couple here the best and hope they made their own (not dad’s) plans for their honeymoon,» tweeted Screwvala.
Paytm founder Vijay Shekhar Sharma agreed with Screwvala. «Totally,» Sharma said.
Netizens, however, seemed polarised on the issue.
While some pointed out that it is up to people to celebrate the way they want, others were of the opinion that it is just «showing off.»
«Why not? His money. His choice,» replied a person on Screwvala's post.
Another person replied, «Vanity flies over logic, way over.»

Another person said that it is a «gross violation of commercial aviation
