80-year-old man marries 40-year-old woman in Rajanpur; social media reacts

An 80-year-old retired teacher, Mian Zafar-ud-Din, has married his 40-year-old former secretary in Rajanpur, sparking widespread discussion and well-wishes on social media.

This marks his second marriage, and his children from his first wife actively participated in the celebrations. A viral video from the wedding shows guests dancing to the beat of drums, with the groom exuding energy and enthusiasm despite his age.

The bride, dressed in a traditional red wedding outfit, expressed her happiness, stating, “I am happy. I got my destination.”

Social media users flooded comment sections with congratulatory messages and interesting observations. One user remarked, “Who says ageing matters? It does not, as long as you have a lively heart.” Another commented, “This marriage is not about age; it’s about commitment to one’s passion and happiness.”

Many pointed out that such marriages are uncommon in society, as older individuals often hesitate due to social pressures. However, this wedding stands as an example of personal choice and the pursuit of happiness beyond societal norms.
