Kolhapur, December 7,2025: A remarkable incident highlighting medical commitment occurred at a recent wedding in Panhala, Kolhapur District. A widely circulated social media video shows a bride, Dr. Priya Bharti Buva's who is also a medical professional. She immediately responded to a medical emergency when a relative lost consciousness onstage. The doctor-bride’s swift action and dedication have received significant appreciation online.
Details reveal that during the wedding ceremony of Dr. Priya, a female family member suddenly lost consciousness onstage shortly after the traditional rituals concluded. The abrupt health crisis caused alarm among attendees, many of whom were unsure how to respond.
Dr. Priya acted instantly, without hesitation despite wearing her complete ceremonial wedding attire. In front of numerous witnesses, she provided immediate medical assistance onstage. Video footage shows her checking vital signs, including the woman’s pulse and breathing rate. Her composed yet efficient actions managed the emergency effectively until the wedding guest regained consciousness.
Remarkably, she performed these interventions while wearing her mundavalya. Mundavalya is a customary decorative string of pearls or flowers worn by brides.
Attendees recorded the incident, and the footage subsequently gained significant traction on social media. Dr. Priya’s rapid response and professional dedication were widely praised online.
One commenter noted that medical practitioners maintain their commitment to patients under all circumstances, with Dr. Priya exemplifying this ethos.
The affected family member has since recovered fully, and the wedding festivities resumed once the situation was stabilized.
A comparable incident occurred in Massachusetts, where emergency room nurse Micaela Johnson and several nursing colleagues attending her wedding responded when a guest suffered cardiac arrest on the dance floor.
The individual experienced a “widow-maker” heart attack, known for its severe and often fatal nature. Johnson, along with five nurses from Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston, administered cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and used the venue’s defibrillator. Their coordinated intervention maintained the patient’s vital functions until emergency medical services arrived, and the individual regained consciousness during ambulance transport.
