Jalgaon (Maharashtra): The marriage hall situated in the heart of Jalgaon was more crowded than usual on the day of Sandeep and Ujjwala's wedding. The entire city was keen on witnessing the happy marriage that followed a heartwarming dwarf love story. Both the groom and the bride, despite having feeble hopes of ever finding a life partner, marked the happy ending of their unusual marriage story here.
Sandeep Sanjay Sapkale from the Shanipethe area of the city, despite being well-educated and having a well-paying bank job, was struggling to find a suitable bride for himself because of his height. Thirty-six inches tall, Sandeep is the only one with dwarfism in his family. His family, too, had long been worried about finding a suitable life partner for him, until they accidentally found one.
Ujjwala Kamble from the neighbouring Dhule district was also struggling to find a groom for herself because of her dwarfism. About 31 inches tall, her family had almost lost hopes for her marriage. Ujjwala's father had three years ago visited Jalgaon and had heard about Sandeep as a suitable groom suggestion for his daughter. However, because he did not know what the boy did for a living, he discarded the option.
