Kshama Bindu, woman who married herself celebrates her first wedding anniversary

Kshama Bindu made news a year ago when she made the decision to married herself. The Gujarati woman performed India's first sologamy or self-marriage by taking'saat phere' with her and applying sindoor to her forehead. She is making headlines once more, and this time it's because of a recent Instagram video she posted. She can be seen in the video commemorating her first wedding anniversary.

“Happy 1st Anniversary,” she wrote as she shared a video. The video is created using different snippets, including pictures from her wedding. One of the snippets in her video also shows her getting a tattoo “Ekla Chalo Re”. For the unversed, the words are from a famous Bengali poem by Nobel laureate Rabindranath Tagore and roughly translates to “Walk alone”.
