M. Sattibabu, a tribal man from Telangana, had been in a live-in relationship with 2 women— Swapna and Sunita. Sattibabu already had two children, one with each woman. The peculiar wedding was attended by people from all across the villages nearby.
Sattibabu fell in love with both the women, who were from the different villages. He has a girl with Swapna and a boy with Sunita. Owing to the awkward situation the parents of the women forced Sattibabu to marry both.
The brides sat on either side of Sattibabu and the occasion was traditionally marked. Even the wedding invitation card had names of both the women.
However, people aware with tribal affairs say such marriages are quite common in the community.
