As nowadays new generation boys and girls mostly go for the love marriage and some of them are success and others end up at separating so fear of that parents wish to do arrange marriage. In love marriage the couple already know each other very well as they spend time with each other then only decided to get married while in arrange marriage the boy and girl meets and based on one meeting they decided whether to marry or not. While in deep narrow villages and cities the people used to get marry without seeing the boy or girl. They see each other after the marriage according to their culture.
In some caste the marriage is done during day time and particularly in afternoon and some do in early morning and some at night.

Talking about the empowerment of the country of men or women there is a big difference in different state and city. Some think girls are not allow after 8/9 pm at night to go out. Some does not allow their girl to go out with boys. In some area, after the girl’s study is over she is to get marry she is not allowed to work. In some cities now a days women are seen more than men working in the office. As women empowerment is increasing day by day but in some area it will not get change as they follow rigid and narrow rituals. Some parents are open minded they allow their girl to work ,go out as they believe in freedom .
But though many motivational speakers speaks about the freedom or good about the changes to be made in culture not the whole but some things that need to be change then also people will not change as they believe that young generation does not know anything about the culture.
Due this type of different cultures and the way they are celebrate makes the world astonishing . Due to that India is consider place of culture.
