Abhi and Megha stood in front of ammavaaru's statue and poojari garu gave them the Maryville flower petals to shower them on the statue and then the holy water from Krishna river making them complete the shuddi (purification).
"Amma next ritual is pradikshina. You need to hold this deepam(diya)and do 108 rounds around the temple safeguarding this light. Remember this diya shouldn't go off" Poojari garu instructed making Megha nod.
"What? 108 rounds? No way" Abhi said making everyone look at him.
"I'll be fine it's just 108 rounds. I did them so many tines before our marriage" Megha said looking at Abhi.
"You might've been fine before but not now" Abhi said clenching his jaw.
"I said I'll be fine and I'll do it" Megha said dismissing him and prayed to ammavaaru's statue before starting the first round.
Abhi nodded in frustration and walked towards Megha lifting her off her feet into his arms in bridal style while she held the diya tightly in her arms. Everyone's jaw dropped but he didn't care and started doing pradikshana looking forward.
"Abhi everyone's watching us put me down" Megha scolded but he didn't listen and said "You want to do 108 rounds then this is the only way you are going to or I'll be happy to be in our room with you" continuing the rounds making her blush and hide her face in his shoulder.
After 108 rounds he stopped before the statue while everyone else is watching them in amazement as he put her down. She poured the oil into the main lamp joining both the diyas and stood beside Abhi looking at him.
"Apply sindhur in her hairline" Poojari garu said handing him the kumkuma box. Abhi faced Megha and applied kumkuma in her hairline making her close her eyes.
"You must be so lucky to get a husband like him. He'll find you in every birth of yours and love you just like lord shiva loved Parvati" Poojari garu blessed them showering them with akshintalu along with other married couple who are elder than them.
