Love is a powerful emotion transcends every trivial boundary, division, or separation. When you truly love someone, you try to make it work by facing the challenges together. And there is one person who didn’t let his social status define the outcome of his love story.

The journey from India to Sweden

Pradyumna reached Amritsar from New Delhi and he cycled through Afghanistan, Iran, Turkey, Bulgaria, Yugoslavia, Germany, Austria and Denmark.

He had to face many challenges too. His cycle broke down multiple times and he had to go without food for some days.

After 4 months and 3 weeks of constant cycling, he reached Gothenburg, Sweden. Upon reaching, the Swedish immigration officers questioned him. They were amazed and skeptical when they heard the reason behind his journey.

This made Pradyumna a little skeptical. He was not sure whether his wife would accept him…

But then when Charlotte came to know about a man who had cycled all the way from India, she was elated! She drove to Gothenburg and received her husband. Her parents accepted Pradyumna as a part of their family.

And so they lived happily ever after!

Dr. PK Mahanandia is the Odiya Cultural Ambassador of India to Sweden. he is happily married for 40 years and lives with his wife and 2 children in Sweden.

He is still known to be a famous artist in Sweden.

Isn’t this amazing? This could be the perfect example of love transcending all boundaries and challenges!
