You may have seen countless weddings — destination ceremonies, royal celebrations, or viral social media weddings. But this recent wedding from Karnataka has taken the internet by storm for its extraordinary twist: one groom marrying two brides — both of whom are his childhood friends!
According to reports, the wedding took place in Herpet area of Chitradurga district, Karnataka, on October 16, 2025. The groom, Wasim Sheikh, tied the knot with two women — Shifa Sheikh and Jannat Makhandar — in a single mandap (wedding pavilion). What’s more surprising? All three families happily participated in the ceremony!
Friendship Turned into an Unusual Bond
As per News18’s report, Wasim, Shifa, and Jannat had been close friends since childhood. Their friendship evolved into a deep bond of mutual respect and understanding. When it came time for marriage, the trio reportedly decided to stay together for life — with the full consent of their families.
The wedding photos that surfaced online show both brides wearing identical outfits, standing beside the groom dressed in a smart suit. The trio’s chemistry and comfort level reflect the depth of their friendship and the rare trust that holds them together.
Social Media Reactions: Shock, Curiosity, and Support
As soon as the wedding pictures went viral, users across platforms like Instagram and X (Twitter) flooded the comment sections. Some expressed shock, calling it “unbelievable,” while others praised the trio for their courage to stand against societal norms.
Many users also recalled a similar viral incident from Himachal Pradesh, where one bride had married two grooms — sparking equally heated debates online.
While some criticized the Karnataka wedding as “unusual,” others hailed it as a celebration of love and unity that transcends conventional expectations.
