While it is very common for families to issue matrimonial ads in newspapers, one advertisement by a qualified dentist is going viral for the unique set of qualities it seeks from prospective brides.
The picture of the ad says a match is being sought for a Dr Abhinao Kumar, who according to the ad, is a 31-year-old, who is “presently not working”. However, he wants “any very fair, beautiful, very loyal, very trustworthy, loving, caring, brave, powerful, rich” bride.
However, the list of requirements doesn’t end there. The prospective bride also needs to be “extremely patriotic” and have a “keen desire” to increase India’s “military and sports capabilities.” Moreover, she is also expected to be an “extremist” but “compassionate as well as an expert in “child-raising”.
While it is not clear when and in which newspaper the ad appeared, it has triggered amused and angry reactions online, with some calling it “fake.”
