Indian beauties fall for 'firangs'

Interracial marriages are still a rarity in India. However, as India opens up to the world the Indian women too are tying the marital knot with men who differ from them in race, nationality and faith. Let's have a look.

The latest romance of cross-border relationship is that of tennis sensation Sania Mirza is all set to enter into wedlock with Pakistan cricketer Shoaib Malik in April, two months after she broke her engagement with childhood friend Sohrab Mirza.
Shweta Keswani and her half-Irish-half-Dutch boyfriend Alex O'Neil married after seeing each other for four years. The couple tied the knot in four different styles, a court marriage, a Buddhist marriage, a Hindu marriage and a white wedding.
Amrita Arora and Pakistan-born, London-bred cricketer Usman Afzal's four-year relationship came to an end. Supposedly, before breaking-up their relationship was going through rough weather and distance was said to be the main reason of their split and the decision to part ways, apparently, was unanimous.
When veejay-turned-actor Suchitra Pillai started seeing Denmark-based environmental engineer Lars Kjeldsen, they were in a long-distance relationship. However, when marriage happened, Mumbai became their base.

Yet another example of cross border love story is that of the gorgeous Ayesha Thapar and Turkish billionaire Engin Yesil. Born into the illustrious Thapar dynasty, Ayesha was probably one of the most sought after women in the country when she married Engin, twice her age and moved to Miami. Though she credits Engin for the success in her life, their marriage lasted only two years.
