A wedding in Sialkot has taken social media by storm after videos of guests throwing foreign currency from a rooftop went wildly viral across Pakistan and beyond. The extravagant celebration, which took place at Al Ghousia Marriage Hall, left both attendees and online viewers absolutely stunned.
The brothers of the groom, who had arrived from Australia, showered dollars on the celebrations, with guests and onlookers scrambling to grab as many notes as they could, a frenzy that lasted for over an hour.
According to details, hundreds of people gathered at the wedding hall to collect the falling currency, with some even bringing nets to catch the money. A special container was set up inside the hall, allowing the groom’s family and friends to stand on a platform and rain down both local and foreign currency.
This extravagant display appears to be a Sialkot tradition, last year, family and friends reportedly showered over Rs5 million during another wedding. The videos sparked a major debate online, with some people admiring the generosity and festive spirit, while others questioned such open displays of wealth.
Regardless of opinions, the “dollar rain wedding” of Sialkot has become one of the most talked-about events in recent Pakistani social media history.
