When Hrishi Mohankumar Sathawane, a US-based engineer from India, fell in love with a man, he couldn't imagine getting married to the love of his life. But when he decided it had to be done, he brought his partner to India, and got married in a well-attended ceremony. He had his parents' blessings and his friends' best wishes, he proudly told NDTV from California. An Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) graduate, Mr Sathawane, 40, tied the knot with his Vietnamese partner, Vinh, in his hometown in Maharastra's Yavatmal, 670 kilometres from Mumbai, in the last week of December.
