Before the wedding, before the vows, there is friendship. In Indian weddings, we speak often about pyaar. But what sustains it is dosti. Companionship. The comfort of knowing that love doesn’t always arrive dressed for the occasion. Sometimes, it shows up exactly as it is. Unprepared, unquestioned, and absolutely certain. For 14 years, Riddhima and Akshay chose each other. After 4,755 days, they made it official. This Valentine’s Day, we celebrate that journey.
