What was meant to be a joyful wedding celebration turned into a heartbreaking tragedy in Noorpur Pinauni village of Uttar Pradesh’s Budaun district, where a 22-year-old bride-to-be collapsed and died just a day before her wedding.
The young woman, Diksha, was participating in her haldi ceremony on Sunday night, dancing with her sisters and relatives, when she suddenly complained of uneasiness. According to her family, she excused herself to the bathroom and did not return for a long time. Concerned, family members knocked on the door, and when there was no response, they broke it open to find her unconscious.
She was declared dead on the spot. The cause of death, according to her family, was cardiac arrest.
Diksha was set to marry Saurabh, a resident of Shivpuri village in Moradabad district, on Monday. The groom’s wedding procession was expected to arrive the same day, and the family had been preparing for the grand celebration for several days.
The incident has left the village and both families in shock, with an air of mourning replacing the vibrant wedding preparations.
Station House Officer of Islamnagar, Vishal Pratap Singh, confirmed the death and stated that the family has declined to file any complaint and refused a postmortem examination.
This is not the first such tragic incident in recent times. Earlier this year, a woman in her 20s collapsed and died of a heart attack while dancing during her sister’s wedding in Vidisha, Madhya Pradesh. Despite immediate CPR attempts by family members, some of whom were doctors, she could not be revived.
As videos from the weddings surface on social media, such incidents raise concerns about undetected heart conditions in young individuals, especially during moments of emotional and physical exertion.
