70-Year-Old Man Marries 19-Year-Old Girl In Pakistan, Morning Walks Bring Them Closer

Liaquat, who is almost 50 years older than his wife said that he met Shumaila during daily morning walks and their affair began when he decided to sing a song while jogging behind her

There is no age barrier to love someone. This was once again proved right as a couple in Pakistan braved the backlash of the society for overlooking their age and got married. The love story of Liaquat Ali, 70, and Shumaila Ali, 19, has become a huge hit with the internet users, after the video of their marriage was shared by YouTuber Syed Basit Ali of Pakistan.

According to Liaquat, love between them began to bloom during their causal morning walks in Lahore. Liaquat, who is almost 50 years older than his wife said that he met Shumaila during daily morning walks and their affair began when he decided to sing a song while jogging behind her. It was the mellow humming of songs that led to Shumaila developing a feeling for Liaquat.

On being asked whether her parents had any objections to the marriage due to the extensive age gap between them, Shumaila said that initially there were objections raised from family members but later they agreed.

The 19-year-old girl said, “One doesn’t see age in love. It just happens."

Shumaila's husband Liaquat was also of the same view and said “Age is not a factor when it comes to romance. There is no question about someone being old or young. Anyone who is legally allowed to marry can marry." 

The 70-year -old Liaquat went on to say he is still "very young at heart"

Syed Basit Ali, who shared the story of the couple on YouTube often makes such videos. Earlier he had shared a video that showed an 18-year-old girl marrying a 55-year-old man. Here too the binding factor was a song from a Bollywood film.
