A Mumbai couple’s wedding turned out to be quite a unique one as they decided to encourage the attendees to fill organ donation forms and pledge for the same instead of receiving gifts from them. They not only tied the knot, but also spread awareness on organ donation on their special day.

Narendra Avhad, 27, and Dipali Nagre, 26, vowed to donate their organs and signed forms for the same on Thursday. “I have seen people struggle for organ transplants. When we decided to get married, we thought of taking this opportunity to spread awareness on organ donation,” said Avhad, a tour and travels businessman. The couple got in touch with the State Organ Tissue Transplant Organisation (SOTTO), a state-level company looking after organ donation, and took the forms from them.
