A couple, in a very unusual style, tied the knot 60 feet underwater off the coast of Neelankarai on Monday. This is reportedly India's first underwater Hindu traditional marriage.
"We dived in at an auspicious time and exchanged our garlands along with tying the Thaali (mangal sutra)," said the couple. Both groom, Chinnadurai, and bride S Swetha are software engineers.
