A month had passed since the heartfelt letters were sent, and the day everyone had been eagerly anticipating had finally arrived: the wedding of Karna to his beloved consorts, Vrushali, Supriya, and Uruvi. The air was thick with excitement, and the palace was adorned with vibrant flowers and intricate decorations, creating a tapestry of color that echoed the joyous occasion.
As the sun rose, the sounds of celebration filled the atmosphere. Families from across the kingdoms arrived, their hearts swelling with pride and joy for the daughters they were about to give in marriage. The royal court was abuzz, the anticipation palpable.
Karna stood at the altar, his heart pounding with a mixture of excitement and nerves. Dressed in regal attire, he radiated an aura of strength and honor. As he glanced toward the entrance, his breath caught at the sight of his brides.
Vrushali, Supriya, and Uruvi approached, each adorned in resplendent bridal attire. The delicate fabrics flowed around them like water, and their smiles shone with love and happiness. The sight of them brought a wave of emotions crashing over Karna.
The ceremony began with the traditional Baraat, where Karna was welcomed by the families of his brides. The Pokwanu ceremony, a warm welcome of the grooms, unfolded with songs and dances that celebrated love and unity.
As the music filled the air, the couples exchanged glances, their hearts synchronizing in a rhythm only they could hear.
"Are you ready?" Karna asked, his voice barely above a whisper, filled with awe and reverence.
"More than ever," Vrushali replied, squeezing his hand, her eyes sparkling with joy.
The Ganesh Puja commenced, invoking blessings for the auspicious union. Prayers filled the air, and the priests offered sweet offerings to the deity. Everyone's spirits were high, and the atmosphere felt charged with divine energy.
Next came the Vaarpooja, where the families offered their respects to the groom. Karna bowed his head, feeling the weight of their love and acceptance.
Finally, the moment arrived for the Kanya Aagman—the arrival of the brides. As they walked down the aisle, the world around them seemed to fade. Their beauty radiated, and a hush fell over the crowd, captivated by the sight of the three divine brides.
With a gentle smile, Kunti, Karna's mother, approached to perform the Kanyadaan, giving away her sons' beloveds. "May your union bring forth harmony and prosperity," she blessed, tears of joy glistening in her eyes.
The Havans were lit as Karna, Vrushali, Supriya, and Uruvi together kindled the sacred fire, symbolizing the purity of their love. Each flame danced as if celebrating their bond.
The moment for Mangal Fera arrived, where they took their vows around the fire, each step solidifying their commitment to one another.
"With each step, I promise to stand by you," Karna spoke, his voice steady.
"With each step, I promise to support you," Vrushali echoed, her heart swelling with love.
"With each step, I vow to honor and cherish you," Supriya added, tears of happiness sparkling in her eyes.
"With each step, I commit my soul to you," Uruvi finished, her voice filled with conviction.
The Saptapadi, the seven sacred steps, united them in a bond that transcended time and space. The crowd erupted in cheers as the couples shared Sindurs and Mangal Sutras, marking their eternal connection.
With blessings from married women, the ceremony continued, filled with Aashirwad from all gathered. Gandhari, alongside Kunti, offered her heartfelt blessings, ensuring the future of the newlyweds was bright.
Finally, the moment of Vidaai approached. With heavy hearts yet joyful spirits, the brides bid farewell to their families, stepping into a new chapter with Karna.
As the festivities settled, the newlyweds shared a moment alone, overwhelmed by the day's events. Karna looked at his brides, their smiles infectious.
"This is just the beginning," he said, his voice low and filled with promise.
"Together, we'll break the rest of the curse," Vrushali affirmed, determination in her eyes.
As they embraced, visions of their past lives flickered in their minds, igniting a fire of hope for the future—a future where love conquered all.
