Gujarat family organises burial ceremony for “lucky” 18-year-old Maruti WagonR
In a truly unique tribute, a family in Gujarat’s Amreli district recently bid farewell to their 12-year-old Maruti Suzuki Wagon R with a grand ceremony that has created a lot of buzz across social media. Declaring the hatchback their “lucky car,” the family spared no expense, spending Rs 4 lakh on an event attended by around 1,500 guests, including local spiritual leaders.
The heartfelt farewell took place at the farm of Sanjay Polara, a construction businessman from Surat. The car was adorned with marigold garlands and rose petals, and was carefully transported from the family home to a prepared site at the family’s agricultural land. There, in a strikingly ceremonial fashion, the car was guided down a 15-foot-deep slope into its final resting place, complete with a traditional puja and blessings.
