I am creating this profile on behalf of my daughter. She lives in Melbourne and has been there over 4 years now working currently in the private sector as a Lecturer. We come from an upper middle class family with moderate family values. Myself and my husband live in Muscat, Oman. Shikha lives in Melbourne with her brother who migrated to Australian in May 2017. My daughter is outspoken and social.She loves travelling, swimming, watching movies. She is independent as she has been away from home for more than ten years now. She believes what makes her happy are the basic joys of love. Shikha and ourselves are on this website because we are very seriously searching for a compatible match for her without wasting much time.
A proud Tulu Nadu heritage
The Bunt community has deep roots in Tulu Nadu, the coastal region of Dakshina Kannada, Udupi and Kasaragod. Families use surnames such as Shetty, Rai, Hegde, Alva, Ballal, Chowta, Bhandary and Adappa. Many families historically followed the aliya kattu system of inheritance through the mother's line, and the family house, or guthu, still holds a special place.
Bunt families cherish traditions such as Bhuta Kola, Nagaradhane and the buffalo race of Kambala. Tulu is the mother tongue in most homes. On Meravyaah, your profile can describe your family house, bari, native place and values, along with your education and career. These details help Bunt families find a good match.
From Mangaluru to Mumbai and the Gulf
Bunt families have built strong communities far from the coast. Mumbai has a large Bunt community, with many families in hospitality, business and the professions. Many also live in Bengaluru and Pune, and in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Qatar, Kuwait, the USA, the UK and Australia. Many travel home for family festivals and temple events.
