Vivah (2006)

In the vibrant tapestry of Indian society, we find the story of Vivah, a tale of love and tradition. Harishchandra, a wealthy Delhi-based businessman, navigates life as a single father following the death of his wife, raising two sons, Sunil and Prem. Sunil's marriage to Bhavna brings joy and a grandson, Rahul, into their lives, while Prem, the younger son, is allowed to complete his education abroad. Elsewhere, in the humble household of Krishnakant, a fruit merchant from Madhupur, Uttar Pradesh, lives Poonam, an orphaned niece treated as a cherished gift. Despite the cold indifference of her aunt due to her beauty surpassing that of their own daughter, Choti, Poonam thrives under her uncle's nurturing care. When Bhagat, the matchmaker, presents Poonam as a suitable match for Prem, the two families embark on a journey of connection and approval. The instant mutual acceptance between Prem and Poonam sparks a joyous engagement, setting a marriage date six months hence. As the planets align in their favor, the families celebrate their union at the picturesque Som Sarovar in Nainital, and later in Delhi, marking Prem's first successful business contract from Japan. Prem, the generous bridegroom-to-be, promises to spend a month each year at his wife's parental home, while Poonam, the epitome of grace and traditional values, prepares to be the perfect addition to Prem's family. As the wedding bells chime closer, both families are swept up in the whirlwind of preparations, little knowing that destiny has its own game to play. A sudden fire at Krishna Kant's house not only engulfs their home but also puts Poonam and Prem's budding love through a trial by fire. As the embers of this incident continue to smolder, will their love withstand the heat or be reduced to ashes? Vivah paints a vivid portrait of familial bonds, the sanctity of marriage, and the strength of love under duress. This heartwarming saga will keep audiences on the edge of their seats, wondering if love truly does conquer all.
