Kerala Bride Plays Chenda At Wedding, Stuns Netizens With Her Performance

"The joy on the faces of both bride and groom is just mesmerizing. And her father to join at the end is just wonderful. Great one to start the day ...!!!"

A video is going viral on the internet in which a woman is seen playing chenda melam at her wedding ceremony in Kerala. Before moving on to the stage for the rituals, the bride along with Shinkari Melam artists played the drums.

Chenda is a cylindrical percussion instrument used as an accompaniment during various dances and rituals in Kerala. It is also played at weddings. 

In the video shared on the micro-blogging site Twitter by @LHBCoach, a woman can be seen playing Chenda with a jubilant group of performers which took place at the Guruvayur Temple in Kerala. The bride was also joined by her father and the groom while playing the instrument.

“A marriage function in Guruvayur temple today. The bride's dad is Chendai master and the daughter plays it enthusiastically with her dad also joining at the end. The groom also seems to be participating,” the caption of the post shared on Twitter read.

Soon after being posted, the video won the hearts of social media users and garnered over 49000 views and several comments.

"This beats every single one of those ghastly, cringe pre wedding shoots, period. She's simple awesome," wrote one user.

"She is the star of the video. It's  about her. Her expressions, her saree, her energy....after all it's her marriage. God bless her. And, she is a beautiful bride...," another user wrote.

"Very beautiful and thousand times better than those brides doing lap dance on their wedding," a third wrote.

"The joy on the faces of both bride and groom is just mesmerizing. And her father to join at the end is just wonderful. Great one to start the day ...!!!" wrote a fourth.
