I didn’t find anything wrong in this video. Rather it is beautiful.

Weddings take place in temples across India.

Temples are the abodes and spiritual places of Lord Shree. These are not parks or tourist places. Such acts and calls should be banned at all such places. There should not be any such sacrilege or sacrilege. Why are Hindus not respecting their religion? degradation of the value system.
