Click to play videoMeerut: Its a real life story that appears to have been lifted straight out of Bollywood movie with a husband who now wants his wife to be reunited with her estranged lover. If that wasn't drama enough, the wife went to the extent of tying a 'rakhi' on her husband's wrist that symbolically now makes them brother and sister.
Aarti, who is the daughter of a sub-inspector in Uttrakhand, was allegedly forced to marry her would-be brother-in-law Nitish Tyagi in Meerut on May 6, 2011. This after her sister eloped a few days before their marriage.
Nitish Tyagi said, "I just want her to be happy now. We will get her married to her lover."
Aarti thinks of her 'new' family as her own and call them supportive, while saying that her parents are threatening to kill her.
"This family is very supportive but my parents are threatening to kill me now," she said.
Nitish's family has accepted Aarti as their very own and say she is a daughter to them, not a daughter-in-law.
"She is my daughter not daughter-in-law. We want her to be happy,' said Anil Tyagi, Nitish's father.
Nitish's mother said, "Now i have two daughters. We have accepted the situation like it is."
After she told her husband that she loved someone else, Nitish made it his mission to help her get back with her boyfriend Vineet. His family is also supporting Nitish in this task. They have even gone to the police and met the DIG to help them with the formalities.
However, Aarti's family is not thrilled with their valiant efforts. Now it remains to be seen when this fairy tale meets its happy end.
