Its never too late for a new beginning this has come true as 75-year-old Ratiya Ram and 70-year-old Jimnabari Bai tied the knot in Chhattisgarh's Jashpur.
The couple met each other two month earlier and found that life has treated them almost in the same way. Both were in a live-in relationship presently for past one week.
"We met at a cultural programme and befriended each other two months ago but the bonding and chemistry matched so well, we decided to marry," Ratiya Ram said naively to media reporters.
