Durjoy Datta, the author of The World’s Best Boyfriend, recently decided to propose to his partner of four years, Avantika Mohan.
Rather than the traditional approach of getting down on one knee, Durjoy had a very novel way of asking his other half to marry him.
Waiting in the airport for her flight to land, he began live-tweeting the marriage proposal.
It didn’t take long for #marrymeavantika to start trending and there’s a happy ever after ending too.
Hi! I’m online for the next two hours. Because i need to tell you guys something. #marrymeavantika

She’s on a flight that’s going to land in another two hours. Let’s bully her into saying yes to my proposal? #marrymeavantika

Also she’s on a flight so she has no idea this is going down. I will be waiting with a placard that says “love of my life”. Could be lame.

Everytime pppl ask me what’s love in book launches i look for her face in the audience. When i don’t find her i end up saying shit. So yeah

His idea paid off and Avantika said yes!
SHE SAID YES!
Now we can calmly go ahead with the wedding next week. ? pic.twitter.com/LBhnFAlJex— Durjoy Datta (@durjoydatta) February 23, 2016
