Akshar Pathak 's innovative wedding card has taken the internet by storm as it portrays how people think in the back of their heads while they read a wedding card in India. Akshar, who is a pass out from NIFT Delhi, works with Zomato. He has previously worked with AIB. As per reports, he has had a knack of designs and dislikes maths. In his journey of mocking the mundane, he came up with the most honest Indian wedding card which pokes fun at the prominent clichés in any North Indian wedding. The hilarious invitations cover many aspects of an Indian wedding — from highlighting a family name to extravagant and senseless expenditure.
The epic wedding card
In the epic wedding card, Akshar talks about a wedding between “Sharma ji ka ladka” and “Verma ji ki ladki” and takes a jibe at the craze of the wedding hashtags, which in this case is #ShaVerma inferring the food Shawarma. The cards reads: “Humne kitna kharcha kiya, just look at this extravagant wedding card, Ambani se kam nahi hai hum" which means watch out how much we have spent, just look at this extravagant wedding card, we are no less than Ambani, and then goes on to list the date and highlight which mentions the problems with the venue. The card's postscript reads out the typical mindset and expectations of the bride and groom's family who mention: “No gifts please, give cash only. Hum 18 juicer mixer grinder ka kya karenge (What will we do with 18 juicer mixer grinders?)”. Check out the wedding card.
Netizens laugh out loud
Netizens have been sharing and commenting on the post insanely as it made them laugh hard. Some users listed things that the comedian had missed or should have added to the card. Others suggested that the menu for the reception could have been added, while others suggested the addition of Amrish Puri and SRK’s ‘aao aao’ meme from Dilwale Dulhania Le Jaayenge. There were also some people who wanted to use it for their own wedding. Take a look at the reactions.
