Resolution in the name of the bride or groom with their birth details.

The kumbh is immersed, aarti is done and Guruji blesses the couple-to-be.
Asked, answered.
०१What is Manglik dosh?
Manglik (Mangal) dosh is said to form when Mars sits in the 1st, 2nd, 4th, 7th, 8th or 12th house of the birth chart. Tradition links it to delays and friction in marriage, which is why its shanti is done before the wedding.
०२What is Kumbh Vivah?
For a bride with Manglik dosh, a symbolic marriage is first performed with a kumbh (clay pot) representing Lord Vishnu, so the dosh is spent on the kumbh and not on the real marriage. For a groom the equivalent is Ark Vivah.
०३Can both bride and groom do Vivah Dosh puja together?
Yes. If both charts have dosh, or if the match has been delayed for other reasons, Guruji can perform the shanti for both.
०४What does the puja cost?
Guruji tells each family the dakshina and the samagri arrangements on the call, after the free Kundali check, so there are no surprises on the day.
