Due to its social significance, this wedding invitation is not the only one to go popular.

A wedding card belonging to Haryana's Bushan village native Pradeep Kaliramana grabbed headlines in January due to its outspoken political implications. So instead of religious sentiments, the card stated, “Jang abhi jaari hai, MSP ki baari hai (The battle is still on, now the fight is for MSP)”. There were more statements, including ‘Jai Jawan, Jai Kishan’ (Hail the soldier and the farmer!). They also raised a banner with a tractor emblem that said ‘No Farmers, No Food'.
