December 3, 2024: A shocking viral video featuring a 24-year-old woman introducing her 50-year-old father as her husband has left the internet divided, igniting debates about legality, morality, and societal norms. The duo claims to have been married in a traditional temple ceremony.
The Viral Video
In the clip, the young woman confidently states, “This is my father, and we are happy after getting married.” Her father echoes her sentiment, saying, “Yes, she is my daughter. So what is the problem in this?”
When questioned by an onlooker about the unconventional union, the father dismissively replies, “In which era are you living? Why be ashamed?” The pair explained that the video was their response to critics who allegedly gossiped about their relationship. The woman asserts, “Our marriage is our answer to those who talk behind our backs.”
The clip, recently shared on X by Jai Singh Yadav of the Samajwadi Party, has amassed millions of views. While originally believed to have been posted on TikTok before the app was banned in India, it has resurfaced and reignited heated discussions online.
Fake or Real?
Many social media users are skeptical of the video’s authenticity, dismissing it as a publicity stunt or fabricated content meant for shock value. News18, which reported the incident, could not verify the truth behind the claims.
Critics have highlighted the serious legal and cultural issues surrounding the video. Under the Hindu Marriage Code, such a relationship is classified as incestuous, making the marriage illegal. One user remarked, “Such acts are not just shocking but a violation of both the law and ethics.” Another added, “Such people should be banned from all platforms.”
Social Media Reactions
The video has drawn widespread condemnation. While some users called for stricter regulations to curb such content, others expressed concern over the potential negative influence of sensationalized videos on younger audiences. Legal experts and sociologists alike have voiced disapproval, stating that such content undermines societal values and could encourage moral degradation.
