00:00I got amputated because of an electric accident when I was just 9 or 10.

00:16So I think for me and my parents, what people would say was very normal.

00:22Physical appearance I guess you don't see when you are in love.

00:30My family knew Shritej from the very beginning, from 2012.

00:42They knew that we were friends.

00:44We were a group of 13 friends and we hung out each other.

00:48For the one year, we do all the touristy things in Delhi.

01:00We have survived long distance relationships and what not.

01:09We were together for almost 7 years before we got married.

01:18We used to travel in metro, autos or any public transport.

01:24People used to stare at us a lot and that was new to me because he is used to it.

01:34Which is wrong.

01:35I used to get very angry in the starting.

01:48My brother helped me a lot.

01:50He is the one who told my father that they wanted to get married.

01:55They were always open to us.

02:08My mom was like, are you sure?

02:10For example, she asked, how are you going to put Sindhu to it?

02:16This is the most important thing in the ritual.

02:22So I said, I will manage.

02:24If any parent is given a task of marrying their daughter to a disabled or differently abled person,

02:30I think they will have their restrictions or thoughts to go behind it.

02:51When we started, we knew that there will be more people like us.

03:00I am not with him for any benefit or vice versa.

03:05People used to say, there must be some benefit.

03:08There must be some reason why she is marrying him.

03:11Just like you got married, we got married.

03:14There is nothing different in that.

03:22People were actually curious to know our parts of the love story.

03:27So we shared it in nine parts.

03:41Even some differently abled couples also messaged us saying that,

03:46seeing you both, we also believe that there could be a happy ending for us.
