Sure, I totally get that Rishta settings are awkward. Not expecting this person to be some motormouth or anything just feel they should be making some contribution to the conversation. Being overly talkative can give off its own bad impression but being silent is not good either. You need to show you have some kind of personality, show you’re interestrd and also friendly.
The problem with this person is that even in casual settings this person is not very communicative with their own family. Everyone will be talking at the dinner table and this person is generally silent. If asked they may say a word or two bt there’s no active engagement.
By the way I’m not talking about my observation of some rishta that is being considered. The said person is someone I know and I want to help them.

They may just be socially awkward…in which case they need to confidence to be able to speak.

I’d suggest getting involved in your local Toastmaster’s type groups.
