Overview
- An Instagram video by Vikas, a Pune-based data analyst originally from Haryana, showcasing his arranged-marriage tracking spreadsheet has topped about 1.5 million views, according to the latest reports.
- The sheet records first names, first and second call details, feedback from both sets of parents, current status, and concise notes such as “no vibe,” “good conversation,” “no follow-up,” and “values aligned.”
- He uses color-coding to indicate whether conversations are ongoing, paused, stopped, or at a final stage, presenting what he describes as a clear, maintainable system.
- Vikas began using matrimonial platforms roughly five months ago at his parents’ urging and says he shared the template with friends who also found it useful.
- Reactions range from humor and praise, including tech tips like pivots and dashboards, to criticism comparing the approach to dating multiple people, with some suggesting he pitch the idea on Shark Tank.
