The viral wedding video has sparked heated debate across the country.
The incident has emerged from Sikheria village, where Ayushi married Sachin Dubey.
The wedding took place on June 20 in a local temple, reportedly with the consent of both families. Ayushi was previously married to Vishal Dubey in 2021.
According to reports, her relationship with Sachin began on social media and gradually turned romantic. She eloped with him on June 15, after which her husband filed a missing person report.
Ayushi has since filed for divorce and refused to take responsibility for her daughter. The viralvideo of the wedding ceremony showed Sachin applying 'sindoor' on Ayushi’s forehead.
“We have been in love for two years. Now our relationship has a name. I will keep Ayushi happy forever," said Sachin as quoted by Free Press Journal.
Vishal, her ex-husband, said, “If this is what makes her happy, I won’t stop her. From now on, she is Sachin’s responsibility."
