Unless you witness it you people from there will always think everything Fake about India.
This is nothing big in India. Almost every year you will find a list of people who have thrown away crores in wedding.
20-50 Crores itself is a hell a lot of money where even a quarter of it most people don't earn in their life time atleast in the sub-continent. There are hundreds every year in India who throw a lavish wedding. I am not even taking in to account Politicians, bollywood actors or other regional actors. These people won't be known in Pakistan like Jr NTR's wedding, Janardhan Reddy's daughter, etc.
This is just a small wedding of Kerala compared to the known & famous biggies of India above. Even Indians won't know who this is. Unlike Pakistan, wedding is a celebration in India & if people have money, they just don't lock it in their coffer. Such occasions are a statement they make to the world, my children are more valuable than my money. All the money I have earned is for my family's happiness & a wedding is one occasion they make it the most memorable for people.

You may not know or heard of Janardhan Reddy. This is a 500 Crore wedding where he booked the entire Bangalore Palace & the Palace grounds for over a week. The palace has a floor area of
45,000 sft, and grounds of
454 acres. His invitation was on LCD sent to people by creating it like a typical Indian movie song. 500 Crore Rupees is equivalent to 7 crore US $

What people do with their money is their choice. Everybody have their own way of spending or using their wealth.
