Randeep Hooda was given a bowl to pee in at his wedding with Lin Laishram: 'Opened umbrella and...'
Randeep Hooda was adamant about this before marrying Lin Laishram
The actor revealed he was adamant that he would get married there as, 'Ladki ke ghar jaake shaadi nahi ki toh kya shaadi hui (Is it even a marriage if you don't get married at the girl's house)?'
The actor shared how a friend who was a brigadier with the Assam Rifles helped him. 'I called him, and he said, 'Come, I'll get you married.' So 10-12 of us went there, and we had never been there. We had no idea about their ceremonies,' Randeep said.
Even though his wife Lin tried to show him videos, he only pretended to watch them as he was busy editing 'Savarkar' at that time. Hooda recalled having pure vegetarian food, worshipping all their gods before getting married. His friends also joked about whether he had brought them to a wedding or a sacred pilgrimage. Randeep Hooda was given a bowl to pee as a tradition
One incident doesn't forget him from the wedding that he was given a bowl to pee in a dignified manner. Hooda said, 'I had a helper with me, more like a tutor. So once the groom puts his thing on his head, you can't tilt your head. You go to the ceremony, and they give you a bowl and an umbrella. They then put you in a holding area where everyone is supposed to come and look at you, and you are supposed to look very dignified.'
He continued, 'I asked what the bowl was for, and he said if you need to pee, you just open the umbrella and pee over there, you cannot move out of there because you are god,' he added. Randeep said, 'Haryanvi (culture) is rough and crass, theirs was so systematic and elegant.'
