Mahindra brand makes sense,” Mahindra wrote in a cryptic post. The bride Bharti Tagde resident of village Javra who married Vasu Kavadkar on 25 May said, "The trend of making entry by car and Doli in marriage has become old. A wedding happens only once, so the unique idea of the bride's entry was preplanned. Tractors are easily available in rural areas and I learned to drive a tractor for this purpose.”
