The opening scenes of Sindu and Piyush's wedding video stuns viewers with a magnificent drone shot of the Berjaya Langkawi Resort in Malaysia with its over-water villas. Piyush and Sindu are captured walking on the beach which fronts a beautiful ocean view dotted with hills and faraway mountains.
In the background, a voice with a distinct 'foreign' accent intones wedding vows while a sweet melody unfurls as the couple walk hand in hand and pose for the candid shots.
Bollywood soon makes itself felt in the speech by a friend/relative who shares how Piyush and Sindu's wedding feels like a story out of a Karan Johar movie about a group of friends holidaying in Croatia and how two to of them fall in love. A female friend then shares a little bit about her memories and the personalities of Sindu and Piyush and the viewers get a deeper insight what the couple is really like. Her account is juxtaposed with shots of wedding where Piyush makes an entry in a golf cart, while Sindu beams and loved ones dance and enjoy the occasion. The presence of a witty Caucasian priest presiding over the ceremony adds an unusual angle to the pheras.
The beauty of the Malaysia - with its lush greenery and serene beaches - comes alive with the colors of an Indian wedding, be it the uninhibited display of emotions, eye-catching rituals or vibrant attire. The sense of time passing between generations is beautifully captured in shots of parents kissing the couple and blessing them. And the priest adds a touch of humor with his interpretation of the wedding vows.
There is further humor when friends enact a romantic skit as the couple looks on amused. Then there are dance performances where everyone has a fun time, especially the couple who epitomize bonding and love.
