The thali


The "thali" is something precious for all religions. There are lots of designs for Thali according to the caste and generations. The Thali is in gold but before the marriage, the chain is in thread with turmeric and after that they'll change it in gold. In the marriage, the groom put the Thali in the bride's neck and they get married. After the marriage, the bride shouldn't remove the chain.
If she remove the chain, it means that her husband has died.
But now, it's not like that, if you don't want to wear it, they can remove it.
