A video emerged online showing a group of about 8 persons (including the camera person) gathering for a wedding proposal.
There were decorations hanging that spelled out “Will you marry me Mahal”, as a blindfolded man who is presumably the aforementioned Mahal stood obliviously.
The woman was then seen getting down on one knee holding what appears to be a ring in front of the blindfolded man, as he took off his blindfold.
A few of the people in the group were also seen without their masks on, as they disregarded the law in exchange for paying homage to love and broke several laws in the name of romance.
Happy engagement Mahal! Wishing you and your fiancee a blissful and happy marriage, and please make your way to the nearest AXS machine to make payment for your impending saman.
