I think arrange marriage is a blessing for desi society. With confidence level/laziness we have, I hardly see girls and guys going out and finding rishtaz for themselves 
Its like a halwa, that our parents put in a spoon and put it in our mouthes … and we say ‘Sorry ammi jee, its not sweet enough. I want that Kulfi from that rehri out side. It looks more yummy and sweet’
