It's just draining to be around that many people for a full day. So probably about 500 people came throughout the day. What they do here is when you get invited to a wedding or an event like this, people rock up. They say hi, they eat their dinner and they fuck off. They fuck off to another wedding. There's like 50 weddings a day in India. If you were smart and you were charming, you would never have to buy a meal in your life.
