Viral Ghazipur Wedding: A UP Resident Wins Hearts by Hosting Local Homeless People at Grand Marriage Ceremony
Siddharth Sevarth from UP’s Ghazipur surprised everyone by inviting beggars as chief guests to his sister’s wedding. The man’s unique perspective on how most people look at wedding guests is drawing attention from netizens across social media platforms.
Redefining Wedding Guest Lists
Siddharth Sevarth chose to invite the most marginalized people in his city. He spent days visiting the streets to invite local beggars and homeless individuals. Siddharth did not just invite them, he welcomed them as the chief guests for his sister’s wedding ceremony. This decision shifted the focus from showing off wealth to celebrating human kindness.
This event turned a private party into a big lesson on equality, showing that compassion can truly bridge deep social gaps. While most weddings are designed to increase social capital, this act deliberately depleted it to build moral capital.
A Heartwarming Viral Gesture
A video of this wedding went viral and touched many hearts online. The footage shows the special guests arriving at the venue in cars. Siddharth gave them the same respect as his own close relatives. These guests sat at the main tables and ate the same fancy food. Many guests were seen dancing on stage and laughing with the family.
Before the beggars left, the host gave them wristwatches as thoughtful return gifts. Siddharth Sevarth wanted them to feel like valued participants rather than just people receiving charity. Many people online have praised Siddharth for his deep empathy and kindness. He stated that he wanted the peace and happiness found by sharing joy with those in need.
This gesture transcends traditional philanthropy by discarding the superiority aspect. It is true that many rich people donate to the poor, but they do it from a distance. However, inviting those people to private events like weddings that involve high stakes is a truly inspiring act. It forces every other guest to confront their own biases in real-time, making the wedding a live lesson in human ethics.
