When one thinks of big fat Indian weddings, you like to imagine a Karan Johar movie, like maybe?Student of the Year:?A destination wedding, crores spent on various functions, a lavish spread and Manish Malhotra outfits. And Indians are pretty serious about spending money on D-day, a glimpse of which we got in the famous web series Made In Heaven.?
And speaking of Indian weddings, they're not a grand affair in India but outside as well. Indians around the world are at their dramatic best when it comes to grand entrance. Take for instance this Indian groom who just set the bar high.?

Groom-to-be Aakash Yadav told his family that he?wanted to make a grand entrance. And, no, he wasn't talking about having?four horses instead of one either. What he wished to do what literally fall from the sky.
Yadav decided to skydive to his own wedding. So as baraatis waited like plebs on the ground, Akash Yadav dove from an aircraft and wedding guests cheered him on, in Los Cabos, Mexico. The video of his grand entrance is going viral probably because it's not every day you see a groom skydive at his wedding.?
In the video one guest can be heard saying,?"Only he would do this!" Guests seem to be in awe as Akash flies down with his parachute.?
Apparently the initial plan was to arrive on a boat with his family and friends, but that was done in Hangover 2 long ago, right? And the plan was scrapped because of some legal reasons.?
Yadav apparently then told his wedding planners, "If I can't come by sea then I'll come by sky." And he was not joking. Yadav said,?"I told my brother that morning as he was waking up that I was skydiving into my baraat and he said, 'shut up, no you're not' and went back to sleep."

?Zohaib Ali, who recorded the wedding, said, "We had to coordinate the dive, with not only us being ready, but also the 500 Indians during the baraat. Plus, remember, we had no contact with the groom after he took the plunge. So we literally were left to look up and anticipate his jump. That was a little nerve-wracking for all but it all worked out in the end."
Well, this would be hard to beat by other rich Asians.?
