Because that would be the logical thing to do, and logic has nothing to do with the entire rishta process.
From what I’ve seen******, girls and their moms are more concerned about getting the rishta done. The other things are just secondary, insignificant issues. Which of course they aren’t, they really aren’t, but hey, who cares as long as the girl gets married and isn’t a forsaken, unlucky buddhi single spinster. Because God forbid she’s happy being single, as long as she’s unhappy but married.
