New Delhi, December 22: A public marriage proposal at a prominent Ghaziabad mall recently captured the attention of shoppers and subsequently social media users, as a man presented his girlfriend with traditional Indian marriage symbols, a mangalsutra and sindoor, leading to her heartfelt acceptance. The incident, characterized by many as a "filmy" romantic gesture, unfolded at Gaur Central Mall, culminating in a joyful moment for the couple and a video of the public proposal has since gone viral.

A man, whose identity is not knwon, approaches his girlfriend in a busy section of the Gaur Central Mall in Ghaziabad. He is seen dropping to one knee before his partner, who appears visibly stunned as a crowd gathers to record the moment. The woman says “yes" to the proposal and then kneels down as well. Rather than producing a ring, the man opens a small box of sindoor (vermillion), applying it to her forehead as she kneels to join him.

The couple shares a hug amidst a chorus of cheers and applause from the gathered onlookers. The ceremony didn't end there; in a final dramatic gesture, the man produces a mangalsutra from his back pocket and ties it around the woman's neck. 'Leopard in Gurgaon Mall' Video Real or Fake?
