In a similar instance, bride Neeta Yadav abruptly called off the wedding after taking two "pheras" in Etawah, Uttar Pradesh, as the groom was "too dark." The issues began after the couple exchanged garlands during the wedding ceremony.
After two "pheras," Neetu abruptly declared her intention to call the wedding off. She insisted that she was not getting married to the groom who had previously been introduced to her. She continued by saying that she disliked the color of his skin.

Her family members allegedly asked her to return, but she left the mandap and did not, according to an IANS report. The groom and his family decided to go after more than six hours without solemnizing the union.
The groom's father has now filed a police case alleging that thousands of rupees in jewels given to the bride as a gift has not been returned to them.
