Indian Woman Disfigured By Acid Attack Marries Man She Met On Misdialed Call
This is a really sweet and heartwarming story. An Indian woman named Lalita Ben Bansi had her bridal dreams come true last week when she wed her true love Ravi Shankar at the Thane registration office near Mumbai on May 23rd. Lalita suffered horrific facial burns five years ago when her hatin’ azz cousin threw acid in her face five years ago. She’s been through 17 surgeries since then but was blessed to meet Shankar after she misdialed a phone call!
“I didn’t know a wrong number would set everything right in my life,” Bansi said, according to British newspaper Metro. “I am feeling very happy. I had never thought that I would ever get married. He has a big heart and a beautiful mind.”
‘He knew everything about me and was well aware of my looks, but he still kept on his promise to marry me. I am so proud to have a partner like him.’
Their love hasn’t been without its obstacles, but Ravi, who works as a CCTV operator and owns a petrol pump (gas station?) was determined to make Lalita happy.
“I had to only convince my mother to accept my choice. I had to make Lalita believe that she too had the right to a better life,” he said. “Her heart is pure and that is what matters the most.”
Ravi even says he’s happy to settle down in Ranchi (where his petrol pump is) or Mumbai, whichever Lalita wants!
Super sweet love story right? And the wedding was even star studded! According to reports, several Bollywood stars attended including Vivek Oberoi, who met Lalita at an event for acid attack survivors.
We’re not sure whether we are more heart warmed by them, or the fact that the evil cousin’s plot totally backfired and Lalita came up even better than before. She’s got a great man and famous friends!
Isn’t it great to see someone blessed after such terrible misfortune?

Jesus take the wheel…
According to a BOSSIP source, Nicki and Nas were actually having sleepovers and no, they were not platonic.
Instead, while they've hooked up a "few times", Nasir's allegedly over his time with Nicki and is "bored" with being with a woman who "treats him like a fan who got to fulfill a fantasy." Their words, not ours.
