Ahmedabad- born Kshama Bindu, who will marry herself on June 11, stunned her parents when she shared her sologamy plan with them. “They asked me if I had lost my mind, but later understood my feelings,” said the 24-year-old woman, who lives in Vadodara. It’s all about self-love, said Kshama, who has made elaborate arrangements for her wedding.

Kshama told mid-day, “I had decided to live with myself when I was a child. I was watching a web series where there was a dialogue that said ‘every woman wants to become a bride but not a wife. So I decided to become a bride of myself. I also found through Google that this is called sologamy.”
