Overview
Nischitartham (Engagement Ceremony) for families in Lanka
Nischitartham is the Telugu engagement ceremony at which the two families formally confirm the marriage. Known in the North as Sagai and in Tamil homes as Nichayathartham, it usually includes Ganesh Puja, the exchange of betel leaves, fruits, clothes and rings, and the reading of the lagna patrika, which announces the wedding muhurat.
Lanka is the busy neighbourhood outside the main gate of Banaras Hindu University (BHU). Its roads are full of students, teachers, shops and eateries, and the residential colonies around it are home to many university and hospital families.
माङ्गल्यं तन्तुनानेन मम जीवनहेतुना।
कण्ठे बध्नामि सुभगे त्वं जीव शरदां शतम्॥
