In Indian Traditions, women are considered to be the manifestation of Goddess Lakshmi. Daughters are considered as a sign of wealth and prosperity. Vidaai is a traditional practice wherein the bride throws back three or five handfuls of rice, often mixed with coins and flowers, over her head. Her parents and relatives spread out their pallu or aanchal to collect the grains thrown by her. After that, the bride proceeds to her husbands house. This denotes the reassurance that even though the goddess of the house departs away to stay with her husband, she will continue to pray for their material and spiritual prosperity.
