Coimbatore: Thanthai Periyar Dravidar Kazhagam (TPDK) cadres celebrated Valentine's Day at Periyar Padippagam in Coimbatore by conducting an inter religious marriage followed by a cake-cutting ceremony.

People across the globe celebrate Valentine's Day on February 14 with great delight and fanfare, especially couples. In the recent past, Valentine's Day has become a festival by itself even across cities in India.

Gowtham (25) of Coimbatore and Reena Jenita (23) of Salem decided to get hitched despite religious differences. The two were colleagues at the same organization and are said to have fallen in love a couple of years back. They encountered disapproval from their parents.

The duo decided to get married despite their religious differences. Commenting on their revolutionary move, Gowtham said, "Religion, caste or creed, neither of them is a barrier for true love. We chose this marriage to prove that love is unstoppable and that marriage is a connection between hearts."

During the occasion, the couple exchanged a flower garland as a declaration of marriage and took vows to stand by each other and support each other in all problems, and carry their love until eternity.
