Nick Jonas talks about his surprisingly difficult varmala ceremony

In an interview with People, Nick Jonas shared a memory from their varmala ceremony and called it a surprisingly difficult game. Talking about the same, he shared how the bride and groom are lifted by their respective family members and try to put the garland around the other. He also mentioned that the one who puts the garland first is regarded as more dominating and added:

“There’s this one moment in Indian weddings where the bride and groom are lifted on the shoulders of their family members and there’s sort of a game that’s played where this garland is put on each other. They try to be the first to put the garland on the other. And it’s surprisingly difficult, especially when you have someone as competitive as me and Pri. But whoever is the one to put it on first, that side of the family is the more dominant.”
