Shatrughna, do you know
why we install four pillars while building a wedding mandapa?
Guru, the four pillars are necessary
to maintain the balance of the wedding mandapa.
Your answer is logical.
Actually, it has a deeper significance.
Rama, please elaborate on my point.
The four pillars of the wedding mandapa
are akin to the foundation of the universe.
The first and second pillars represent a husband and a wife.
[mellow music playing]
The third pillar represents children
and the fourth pillar represents society.
When the four pillars are balanced,
this world progresses.
[joyful music playing]
Additionally, they represent the four principles of a relationship.
First,
respect for each other.
Second,
a strong companionship with each other.
Third,
full dedication of both the people.
Fourth,
equanimity.
These four pillars are installed in a wedding mandapa
to maintain these four qualities in the new relationship.
[theme song playing]
We'll do the Ganesha 'puja' before the wedding.
[conch-shell playing]
Please hurry up.
Ganesha, we'll soon be summoned.
You warned all of us not to use our divine powers.
I hope you remember.
Please get back to work.

Shri Ganesha is the lord of good fortune and happiness.
He is the symbol of auspiciousness.
To maintain happiness and prosperity in one's marital life,
Shri Ganesha's idol
will be built with this intention.
Sita and Rama,
please repeat after me.
O, Gajanana.
- O, Gajanana! - O, Gajanana!
- We have to embark upon... - We have to embark upon...
- The journey of life together. - The journey of life together.
- Help us overcome all problems. - Help us overcome all problems.
- May our love solve all problems. - May our love solve all problems.
- We invoke You with this intention. - We invoke You with this intention.

Shatananda,
please light the diya for the Ganesha 'puja'.
Sure, guru.
Son of Gauri, we are summoned. Let's go.
Hey, where are you two going?
The food isn't cooked yet.
[ethereal music playing]
'Why aren't the diyas getting lit?'
[tense music plays]
[suspenseful music playing]
Everything is ready. Please check.
[sweeping music playing]
Lord, why did you use your divine powers?
I warned others against using it but not myself.
Amazing, but I'll reach there first.
Please don't forget that I get worshipped first.
So I'll see him first.
