The bride and groom, Deepak and Rajeshwari, come from Belagavi, in Karnataka. Their wedding day was a celebration of the Kannada language. The event took place at the H K Patil Kalyana Mantapa, in Belagavi. For the occasion, the couple wore customized gold rings which were etched with the words “Kannadiga and Kannadati”. The wedding was attended by Chandrashekar Shivacharya Swamiji from the temple of Hukkeri Hiremath who also recited the mantras in Kannada.
