Kanpur dad brings divorced daughter home with ‘band-baja’ | Viral Video

In a heartwarming display of support, a retired government official in Kanpur welcomed his daughter, who had recently divorced, back home with a lively celebration complete with music and dancing.

Anil Kumar, who used to work for BSNL, explained, “We sent her off to her marriage with joy, and now, as she starts anew, we want her to feel proud and confident.” His daughter Urvi, 36, works as an engineer at Palam Airport in New Delhi. She was married to a computer engineer in 2016, and the couple had been living in Delhi with their daughter.

Urvi faced challenges in her marriage, including alleged harassment by her in-laws for dowry. After enduring years of difficulties, she decided to seek a divorce, which was granted by the court on Feb 28.

Anil shared, “When I brought her back home, I arranged for music and dancing to show that it’s important to support our daughters, especially during tough times like divorce.”

Urvi expressed her gratitude, saying, “I will take some time to reflect on my life before starting fresh. I am speechless at my parents’ gesture. I wish every daughter could have parents like them.”

Neighbors and well-wishers also praised the family’s support. Indrabhan Singh, a neighbor, remarked, “Initially, we thought Urvi was getting married again. But when we understood her father’s intentions, it was truly touching.”

Urvi’s mother, Kusumlata, shared her excitement about being reunited with her daughter and granddaughter, expressing, “It’s a wonderful feeling.”
