500 _aMadhurima Pandey is twentyfive, single, and gradually coming to terms with the annoying you re next nudges from family and friends. But soon they realize that chances of finding a groom for her are slim-mainly because she s not. At 93 kilos, she knows she isn t the ideal weight for marriage, even if her family believes she s the ideal age. Despite her reservations, the hunt begins, and so does a spree of rejections until Harsh comes along. Madhu cannot believe that a boy with no obvious flaws has agreed to marry her. Low self-esteem makes her suspect he s either impotent or a homosexual, but she doesn t turn down the proposal immediately. A negligible period of courtship and a hurried engagement follow. But does Madhurima really find her happily-ever-after? Or are there more surprises in store? Jovial, witty and unapologetically honest, Madhurima Pandey s story of struggle and survival in the run-up to her D-Day gives you a refreshingly new take on the big fat Indian wedding.
