On which side of the "right age" to marry debate do you stand?
Transcript
00:00Aise hi shadi karni hoti hai, matlab alarm clock thodi nahi hai.
00:03Baadme tumhe ladke nahi milenge, ya baadme tumhe ladkiya nahi milegi.
00:06I have told my kids, please don't get married before you are 30 and all that.
00:10Please.
00:11Like one of my friends, her daughter is like 25 and she is like, no, no, I have to look
00:17for a guy.
00:18I said, are you mad?
00:19Like, are you nuts?
00:20Educated, beautiful, lovely kid.
00:21Why?
00:22Matlab, why do you want her to get married?
00:29Until she finds the right guy.
00:31Aise hi shadi karni hoti hai, matlab alarm clock thodi nahi hai.
00:34Yeh hi society mein alarm clock hai na, ki karni hi padh chahiye.
00:38I don't think it's there so much now.
00:39Baadme tumhe ladke nahi milenge, ya baadme tumhe ladkiya nahi milegi.
00:42Yeah, but I don't think it's there so much now.
00:45Maybe because kids are independent enough to take their own calls.
00:48It is there.
00:50Really?
00:51I have seen it in multiple families and not only talking about tier 2, tier 3, talking
00:55about tier 1 as well.
00:56Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:57I am from Indore.
00:58I am from Indore city.
00:59In fact, tier 1 mein zyada hota hai.
01:00The pretense is far more.
01:02Far more, right?
01:03So, I have heard this in one of my friend's family conversation where the mother spoke
01:11in front of like 20 friends.
01:14And she said ki, why don't you guys convince her?
01:17She has turned 25 now.
01:19If she is not going to decide who to marry right now, she won't be able to find like
01:24really good house.
01:25In tier 1, really rich family.
01:28A woman is from a very good institute.
01:33She is educated.
01:34She is very well educated.
01:35She is working.
01:36She is from US Ivy League.
01:37She is working.
01:38She is from a very, very filthy rich family.
01:44And then they talk like this.
01:45But you know, a lot of kids also have this thing that they want to marry early because
01:52they want to be able to have fun with their children.
01:56Which makes sense on one side.
01:58But at the other part of me keeps saying, like my son says that he wants to have kids
02:03and all that.
02:04And he is like, I mean, he has this whole thing of I will work.
02:09I will earn so much that when I have kids, I can stay at home and take care of them and
02:15enjoy and all of it.
02:17And I want to do it early because then I'll have more years to enjoy with him.
02:22Which is a fact.
02:23True.
02:25Like today, you know, if he wants to climb the Himalayas, I can't do it.
02:30I'll probably reach the base camp, but I can't do that.
02:35So it's like that, which is not completely off.
02:39In fact, there's a new sort of community which people are tagging, which is called Dink.
02:44Have you heard of it?
02:45No.
02:46Double income, no kids.
02:47So there's a couple where both the partners are working and they are getting double income
02:52in the house and they don't have kids.
02:54This people have seen that this sort of people, these sort of people also are marrying early
03:00because they want to build together.
03:02They are like, we will anyway end up fighting and we will have compatibility issues going forward.
03:08We want to solve all of this in our 20s only so that from 30s, we can only build together
03:13and enjoy together.
03:14Like we want to align our values.
03:17Makes complete sense.
03:18And then there is this group, which is Dinkod.
03:22Double income, no kids, only dogs.
03:25That is the snippet.
03:28I think that is the best.
