By Indian culture, I am assuming what has been presented in Indian showbiz industry.

If someone gets influenced by the sho-shaa of showbiz, then its the indication of weak mind. In 1990’s ‘Friends’ character Rachael Green influenced 1 million people to get a hair cut like hers. In Pakistan back in 60’s and 70’s, younger guys were crazy about Waheed Murad’s haircut. Same with Dilip Kumar and now Sharukhan Khan. As long as people are only following the fashion trends and style from showbiz, its ok. BUt if we start changing our customs and tradition based on what we saw in ‘dil waley dulhania le jaain ge’ then there is something very very wrong.

In last decade I noticed a practice, that our wedding ceremonies are heavily influenced by Marigold (gainday ka phool) than Rose (Gulab ka phool). That made me sad. What is wrong with Gulab ka phool that we are ditching it for gainday ka phool?

Yes TLK the major source for known each others culture is show-biz. I remember there was some traditions in Sindhi people which were common between Hindus and Muslims, but after the advent of Indian channels, I see people performing Indian traditions in their marriages here in Pakistan, which most of the time leave bad taste and fakeness.
