>> "no one cares about caste at least in the cities" I find this to be reasonably close, till it comes to marriage. Very few families wholeheartedly agree for an Inter caste marriage.

Dowry is a deeply rooted cultural custom in some regions India where the Bride's father/family has to pay a heavy sum of money to the bridegroom or family in order for the marriage to take place.

Now, I hear you ask : "Why do they need to pay?. can't she marry someone else?". It's difficult to explain. But I will try.

Love-Marriage (Name for the "not arraged by families" marriage) is still a No-No in india. Which means your parents finds a girl/guy for you. Also,you are supposed to find a bride/bride groom from the same relegion-caste you are from.

So, if everyone expects dowry in your relegion/caste,you end up with no other option but to pay the money to get your girl married.

Now the amount of Dowry varies according to the bride grooms family status & of course the qualification and job of the bride groom. If the bride groom has moved outside india, specially to US or UK, the dowry paied increases considerably, as it's considered a socially prestegious thing and he is considered a winner in Life.

Hence the Guy in question asking to be sent to US. And "Crore" is a word used to denote 10 million Indian Rupees.

Love-Marriage (Name for the "not arraged by families" marriage) is still a No-No in some parts of india.

Corrected that for you.

"What to exclude and What to include in a product is part of making a product.That's what the customers pay us for, to make great products. If we succeed, they'll buy them. If not, they won't." - simple. I think the expiry date on the Apple-Flash press mania has reached and it's time to move on...
