It is a marriage between a boy & a girl of two different caste/religions. In Older times, boys or girls used to marry wherever their parents decided. But now time is changed. Now the youth have their own choice and preferences. Now marriage happens with someone who is more compatible with them compared to do marriage with someone who belongs to their caste or religion. Now, caste & religion is not a matter of utmost consideration.
