Chairs are used as weapons
A reported paneer shortage led to guests at an Indian wedding fighting with each other.
Viral footage of the brawl circulated on social media.
It is believed that the wedding happened in Delhi.
One user on X posted the video of the chaos and claimed that the fight was sparked by a paneer shortage.
Guests were served matar paneer, however, the dish contained no pieces of the Indian cheese.
Guests became angry over the unsatisfying meal and took their frustrations out on each other.
Footage showed attendees picking up chairs and hurling them at each other.
One instance showed a man in a red shirt grabbing a younger man by the neck and throwing him down to the floor.
As the man drags his rival, another guest intervenes and repeatedly slaps the younger man.
While the wedding hall features several fights breaking out, the central one has a group of men beating the younger man.
One guest even swings a plastic chair over his head to hit the man on the floor.
Chairs are used as weapons as more guests become embroiled in the violence.
Meanwhile, tables stacked with the uneaten meals manage to not be knocked over in the chaos.
The user who shared the video claimed that the fight stemmed from no paneer in matar paneer.

While the scenes at the Indian wedding were violent and chaotic, social media users could not help but laugh at the situation.
One person wrote: “No paneer, no marriage. Simple as that.”
Another said: “World War 3 will be fought for paneer.”
Shocked by the video, one user asked:
“These people came here to bless the couple or get satisfaction for their eating habits?”
Another believed that a fight was expected, writing:
“This is no small matter. many had joined the groom’s procession just for food.
“After so much work involving travelling, dancing and creating drama.
“If there is no payback, and they have to eat only matar in matar paneer, this can be expected.”
Despite the chaotic scenes, fights sparked by unsatisfactory food at Indian weddings are not uncommon.
In Kerala, a fight happened in the wedding venue’s dining hall after the groom’s friends were refused poppadoms.
The friends had asked for more poppadoms. However, the catering staff refused.
This led to an argument between them and the staff.
Things escalated when more people joined in on the argument. Moments later, a fight broke out.
