What is the origin of this customs? I mean which communities follow this.
Traditionally, Sindhi wedding didn’t have this custom, but it got popularity after watching this in movies like ‘Hum aap ke hain kaun’.

Re: Joota Chhupai

Re: Joota Chhupai

Yes deewar of any age sometimes touching the knee would do the job.

Re: Joota Chhupai
I think in Punjabi culture, Dewar Bhabhi’s rishta is quite interesting.

Re: Joota Chhupai
Nope. First saw in in the above mentioned movie.
Re: Joota Chhupai
Is there any custom in South through which bride’s sisters / friends get money from groom. There is also a custom of stopping groom at bed room door and get entry tax 
Re: Joota Chhupai
Ha Ha. In south those functions are more serious without the sangeet and dancing. The stopping groom custom is also not there atleast in my state. As for getting money, the only way to get money from groom(brother/cousin) is to join in the welcome aarti. I made 300 rupees as a kid that way when I stood in for my cousin as a sister since he had no sisters.

Strange similarity between South India and Sindh. In Sindh, traditional customs which involves getting money from groom are from groom's side (groom's sister /cousin getting money). There is this ganth kholana rasm in Sindhis and for opening the knot, groom gives money to his sister(s).

no idea about South India. i've had almost non-existent exposure to Southerners.
