The husband not only helped his wife get married to her lover but also performed the rukhsati ritual.
Do you remember Anil Kapoor starrer Judai in which his wife Sridevi married him off to Urmila Matondker for money? We so hated her for doing that!
But when Ajay Devgan went to great lengths to unite his wife Aishwarya to her lover Salman Khan in Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam, our hearts reached out to him.
The story of Phoolchand is a real-life rendition of Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam. His is the story of the lover who does not get the girl in the end.
In an unusual incident, the husband, Phoolchand, helped his wife, Chanda, get married to her lover, Suraj. The husband even performed the rukhsati ritual; a tradition in which family bids farewell to the bride.
As the story goes, Chanda, a resident of Bikapur village in Indian district of Faizabad was having an affair with Suraj of the same village. However, she got married to Phoolchand in 2012, as per her parents' wishes. Unaware of his wife’s lovestory, Phoolchand married Chanda and took her home to Palipoorab, the adjacent village.
Phoolchand had to leave for Jalandhar soon after their marriage to earn a livelihood. The couple carried on through phone calls. But she had gotten closer to Suraj in the meantime. He used to frequent his relative's place in Palipoorab and they would meet under some pretext or the other.
Phoolchand returned home on the 4th of August only to find the truth from Chanda herself.
In addition to this, she also returned him all the jewelry, clothes and other items he had given her during their wedding.
Phoolchand said, "I was happy that she relied on me and told me the truth. I got angry and sad for sometime but decided to take out a solution."
After consulting with his father, Phoolchand took up the issue to the panchayat of Chanda's village. He said that he forwarded the suggestion that Chanda and Suraj should be allowed to marry and that he had no objections.
After a panchayati discussion, Phoolchand's offer was accepted. Suraj and his family were summoned and the wedding took place in no time.
Phoolchand's family threw a feast and gave gifts to the newly weds as well.
