Bhim bahadur ji, not really a great idea to post your name on sajha. but nice to hear your marriage sequence. Ani lakhee broda, remember, there's you and then there's your prents who may have worked VERRRY hard to get you where you are today. Duitai kura khyal rakhnu parcha hai. They always ask for one thing and one thing only- a good buhari. Social change needs to take place slowly- in Nepal, especially in Kathmandu- it's changing extremely rapidly- not a good thing. But do what your heart and MIND tells you is the right thing. A newari girl may come into conflict with your family's bahun cultures. There will be ridicule, anger and youll have to stand despite all odds. Things aren't as easy as in bollywood. Besides, you parents may not giver her much love, which in turn may cause your wife to hate your parents. This will cause a rift between you and your parents and between you and your wife. Instead i would recommend marrying a bahun girl who is open minded like you and then let your kids decide who they wanna marry. That's what I think is the right way to reach the social mix- slowly. I'm not suggesting you here. these are my views.
