A bizarre relationship controversy from Uttar Pradesh’s Kanpur Dehat has left social media stunned after reports claimed that a man allegedly married his mother-in-law, abandoning his wife in the process.
According to reports, the incident allegedly took place in the Akbarpur area of Kanpur Dehat, where the man is said to have ended his relationship with his wife before entering into a court marriage with her mother.
While details surrounding the alleged marriage remain limited, the claim has generated massive attention across social media platforms, with users expressing everything from disbelief and amusement to anger and concern.
The controversy gained further momentum after a video featuring the couple began circulating online. In the viral clip, the pair are reportedly seen holding their marriage certificate and appealing to people to accept their relationship. They are also said to have sought blessings from the public for their decision.
Reports further claim that the mother-in-law and her son-in-law developed a close bond after the marriage of her daughter. Despite the growing discussion surrounding the case, no police complaint has reportedly been filed so far. Authorities have also not announced any legal action in connection with the matter.
As the video spread online, thousands of users reacted to the unusual development, turning the incident into one of the most talked-about topics on social media.
One user wrote, “The court clerk probably started the day expecting paperwork, not a family diagram requiring advanced geometry. This family tree took a U-turn, merged back into itself, and called it a life decision!!! 🙈🙈😂😂🤣🤣🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️”
Another commented, “Only middle class people think about their reputation in society where as poor don’t care because it’s normal for them whereas rich also don’t care becuase they call it modernism,”
A third user joked, “Man in Kanpur married his mother-in-law. Now his ex-wife calls him ‘Dad’ and his kids call her ‘Grandma-Wife.’ Family tree is now a family pretzel.”
Many reactions were critical of the alleged relationship. One user wrote, “Men will be men. But what about this perverted woman? How can she ruin her own daughter’s life?”
Another commented, “Somewhere a kid is trying to figure out whether to say “grandma”, “stepmom” or just “good morning.””
Several users also responded with memes and sarcasm. One wrote, “Inhone ‘Call me daddy’ waala dialogue jara jyada hi seriously le liya!”
