Mahurat...
So we were woken up early in the morning as everyone was getting ready for the Mahurat rasm.
Hmmm let me give you an idea about this rasm. A coconut, some supari (beetlenuts), whole termeric, misri (crystal sugar) and some other stuff is tied in the centre of a red linen cloth and it is tied on all the four sides above the enterance of the house where shaadi is taking place. The young girls of the house ties the knots. In our case it was done by Fatee's aapa's daughters. This marks start of the shaadi ceremonies and keeps evils away from the house.
With every function during shaadi there has to be some food/drinks to be served so there it was. Food and drinks were served for everyone present.
