I am going to keep this speech fairly short because of my throat, Pooja said that if I made fun of the groom too much she would cut it. Pooja, you look absolutely gorgeous… radiant. I saw Salim swell with pride when he saw you today. He is truly a lucky man to have someone so attractive, intelligent, warm and caring. A wife who will be all he could ever wish for, and more. And my little brother…well well… you’ve finally done it… after 30 years of endless soulsearching… you’ve finally taken the plunge… and admitted that I am really the best man. Thank you for giving in. It’s been a long struggle… and the best man has won. And now I hope you don’t mind if I kick you while you’re down… I’ve been waiting for this chance for 30 years, and have been building up a portfolio of all the crude, rude and lewd things Salim got up to over the years. So.. we have a bald filmmaker and a short lawyer getting married… a comedians dream… but I promised salim that I wouldn’t mention the word short or bald in this speech… plus, pooja is actually quite tall… for a 7 year old… Anyways… Let me tell you a little story… it begins about 5 years ago… A day I’ll always remember… when Priten, Pooja’s brother, came home to a party which my sister Tasreen held, with his two lifelong loves… Pooja and a bottle of Jack Daniels. We all thought that Pooja was his girlfriend, but as the night progressed, we noticed Priten paying much more attention to Jack… and Pooja was left unattended sitting on the balcony stairs… Salim came onto the scene, baseball cap carefully placed to cover his bald spot, surveyed the terrain and pounced on the stair next to Pooj… Pooja was startled… ‘hi’ Salim said, ‘you have really nice feet’… Pooja’s startled... ... middle of paper ... ...ratulations on the termination of your isolation, and may I express my appreciation of your determination to end the desparation and frustration that has caused you so much consternation in giving you the inspiration to make this unification and bring an accumulation to the population. So as I end my toast to this occasion, and wrap up my salutation, I raise my glass to this combination, and bid good luck to the consummation! So cheers, and on with the celebration! Now, I’d like to think that Salim chose Sachin and me to be joint best men so that we could both be by his side on his wedding day. But I really think that he only picked us for the wedding photos. Me, so he'd look slimmer, and Sachin, so he'd look taller. You see what I mean in a moment… Sachen has been Salims oldest friend, and is an honorary Keshavjee and has a few words to say… over to you Sachin!
... and his ignoring her. Nair does not seem to agree with arranged marriages. This is shown in the marriage between Patel and his wife. Every night his wife refuses to sleep with him. Their marriage lacks all the qualities that an ideal marriage should have. I find it interesting that Nair never mentions having children when discussing marriage.
The romantic comedy, Today’s Special, expressed the worries of Indian parents becoming at ease. Also, expressed the struggles a parent faces in search of a better life, the passion and dedication going unnoticed in the work field, and the connection between friends, a lover, and family. However, the film centered its attention more on the development in Samir’s “cold” cooking within the Indian food, with the help of Akbar.
I now come to the most important person in my life, and that’s Isia my beautiful bride. I am so proud to say that you are my wife you really do look amazing. I am sure that you will all agree that she has done me proud. I wrote this before today so I never knew until now just how amazing you would look. Knowing you like I do I am sure you will now be getting rather embarrassed and possibly a little pink. But I am sorry I must go on.
It is customary for the best man to retell an embarrassing tale or two from the bridegroom’s past. As Gary’s oldest friend, this part of the speech fell to me. However, I had two problems with this. Firstly, Gary originally insisted on vetting the speech, which would have meant me going to the trouble of preparing two speeches. Luckily, he relented. Secondly, Gary is the original Mr. Nice Guy and it's very difficult to think of anything bad to say about him. So, back to you Steve!
Watching this documentary was a roller coaster of emotions for myself. At times I was excited for Ravi before his countless dates, but I was also exhausted at how much time and money was put forth to find someone that met the criteria for his culture. Finding a spouse seemed a lot like trying to acquire a job. You’d fill out at applications and send them out, as well as receive them. Most of it wasn’t based off of falling in love, a lot of it was based off how well two people might fit together. It made me feel thankful that, for myself, trying to become married was never gonna be about my culture and whether or not I was a little chubby. My parents are never going to make me a dating resume, in hopes that men could get past my love for crocheting and slightly crooked teeth. I found myself wanting there to be romance involved for Ravi’s sake, but I had to
...not even wanted to think about having any further personal conversations. This teaches us how two entirely different people can carry one mutual heritage but being brought up into different cultures can be very different and UN mutual. Looking back in the story we realize and feel how important it is to keep our cultural believes when it comes to interact with different people as we are not only representing ourselves but also putting the county, believes and family hood on line. Having any kind off self issues should not be shown to people that are not involved in the situation, that also helps us to stay open minded and not selfish, which in the story Mrs. Das seemed to forget.
(To the bride) You make a fine bride and look beautiful and radiant. I couldn't help but notice the groom swell with pride when he saw you walking clown the aisle in that dress. (To the groom) You are indeed a lucky man, you have married someone who is attractive, warm, loving and caring. A wife who
Humorous Wedding Speech by the Best Man When Daniel came to me and asked me to be his best man, it was a great honour but, when I looked at all the duties required of me, I felt he’d be better off choosing someone else. Then he offered me a fifty, but I told him that it wasn’t a decision that money could change. So then he offered me a hundred. Anyway, good evening Ladies and Gentlemen - My name is Rob and it’s my pleasure to be Daniel’s best man today.
As is customary I should leave the groom with wise words, to help in your marriage. Since I am a bachelor, I have little experience to speak from, but I hope these help anyway:
Firstly, on behalf of the bridesmaids, I'd like to thank the groom for his kind words, and I have to say they have done an excellent job today and look absolutely wonderful.
Now I was a bit unsure about the duties of a best man, although I told Brian very early on that there was no way I was going to get off with a bridesmaid – I say that with no offence intended to Claire and Nicola who I’m sure you’ll all agree look lovely, and have done a great job today. So to find out what was expected of me, I turned to the internet and managed to find some really interesting stuff… but then remembered what I had gone onto it for in the first place, and set about plagiarising other people’s speeches from all the wedding sites I could find. So I accept no responsibility if this end result is rubbish. I know many of you will have been to a few weddings in your time, so can I suggest that you entertain yourselves quietly by playing wedding bingo – every time you hear a witty comment in my speech that you have already heard at another wedding, give yourself a point and the first one to five wins a piece of wedding cake.
He is the person “who practiced law in the religious courts”(Mahfouz.1). At other words, he only works for his benefit. When the protagonist asks about him want to see the Sheikh Qamar, these are a beautiful lady “with a most intoxicating was leaving it”( 1), and the man who received protagonist had a smile on his face and he told him to sit in these “a fine leather-upholstered chair”(1).

Mahfouz describes the lawyer, Sheikh Qamar, as “ the man wore a long suit and was smoking a cigar; his manner of setting was that of someone well satisfied both with himself and with his worldly possessions” (1). He is a rich guy who had lots of money with costly carpets which the narrator sinks his feet into. Every other person wants to be like him because he wears expensive clothes and smokes costly cigars and acts as though he is inspired. When the protagonist starts talking with him, he realizes that protagonist is not for his economic benefit, and he kicks him out and says he hasn’t seen Zaabalawi from very long time. He also says that in his knowledge Zaabalawi was living in the Birgawi
All the hope was raised by the participants. Eyes spotted the host, who seemed ready to announce the next winner. “Second place goes to… Himaja Kodi!” Immediately, the news flashed in my eyes. The true love and support from my friends and families couldn't be covered by any of the boasting I could have had at that time. More than excitement, astonishment raised in my eyes. Moments later, I headed to the stage, striving with thoughts. What is going on? Is this really happening? I have to ease back to reality. Was I that good? The thoughts didn’t matter anymore as I received the second winner prize. I stared at two important figures, my mother and sister. We shared a smile of delight

The Indian culture’s weddings have different traditions when it comes to proposals, ring traditions and ceremonies not only for the couple but for the families as well.
