Survey Says 30% Of Gen Z Seek Partners During Festivals/(Ram-Leela)

Remember that magical moment in Goliyon Ki Raasleela Ram-Leela, inspired by the epic romance of Romeo and Juliet, when Ram first locked eyes with Leela during the Garba?  It was electric, wasn’t it? The way their eyes met, how effortlessly their love bloomed in the midst of all the colours, music, and sink-garba steps, it felt so natural, so meant to be. The moment beautifully captured that raw connection that just happens without trying hard to make it happen or to set up anything.

Festive moments like these have a special kind of energy, don’t they? The excitement is so high, so pure, that all self-consciousness fades away. Just one glance can ignite something special. It’s the kind of romance where words aren’t necessary—eyes do all the talking. No wonder today’s youth are so drawn to seek out potential partners during these events. You don’t have to overthink or plan; just invite your crush to a Garba night or a Ganpati celebration or who knows, maybe you’ll bump into "the one" right there.

Survey Says 30% Of Gen Z Seek Partners During Festivals

As festivals like Navratri and Ganesh Utsav wrapped up, Tinder, the popular dating app, released a survey revealing new trends in first-date preferences among young singles. It is no longer a traditional cafe or movie dates; instead, many young people are now opting for festivals over parties as their go-to first-date setting. Surprising, right? According to the survey, singles are increasingly choosing cultural celebrations as the spot for their first in-person meetings.

The survey found that 43% of Gen Z in India prefer festivals and cultural events as their top choice for a first date. These lively gatherings provide a fun, low-pressure environment that makes it easier to connect. Interestingly, about 30% of Gen Z also actively look for potential partners during such events, making the festive season a hot spot for new relationships.

Even without the survey revealing these trends, many people have subtly shared similar sentiments on their social media profiles. They've expressed how they eagerly wait for festivals to either introduce their partners to the family or even find a potential partner. You can see it for yourself—it's a growing trend!

Or if not during festivals, haven’t you noticed how Bollywood often shows leads meeting at someone else’s wedding? There are plenty of examples, but the one that comes to mind right now is Badrinath Ki Dulhania.
