Several love sagas have turned eternal and get cherished for ages. Though there is no age bar or any other restrictions to falling in love, it is a craze mostly witnessed among youngsters. They go head over heels to fall in love.
If you get fascinated with love stories, you must have come across many such tales. Even the entertainment industry revolves around such sagas. Be it Hollywood, Bollywood or any other film industry or stage play, love gets portrayed in some or the other way.
Though humans think only they are finer which makes them superior to others and their hearts can only beat for others, there are several instances that defy such thoughts. Here we bring such a video that will fill your hearts with love.
This love story is of two four-legged canines who have been winning and stealing the hearts of social media users across the world with their pawsome love saga. The video was shared by 'The Dodo' an American media brand and digital publisher focused on telling animals' stories.
This love saga is of a golden retriever that started off with stalking. The male canine's pet parent narrating the story said that they noticed 'Pax' going straight outside to the fence every day and was 'seeing' their neighbour's dog 'Penny'. As seen in the video, as soon as the door is thrown open, Pax rushed towards the fence and his girl came from the other side. The duo seemed to be quite excited and hugged and showered licks on each other.
As said by the pet parent, every time he (Pax) went outside, he straight went to the fence and waited for his girl. Even their neighbour shared some pictures while Pax stalked near the fence.
However, a snow storm forced the duo to separate for some days as the girl was quite afraid of snow. But, Penny couldn't stop her excitement when she saw Pax waiting near the fence and dared the snow. As soon as they came together, they looked at and licked each other's faces. With high excitement of coming together after a long time, they ran to and fro on either side of the fence.
They exchanged toys from the fence. Gradually, their bonding got stronger.
All these everyday activities of the four-legged species melted the hearts of their parents and finally they opened the fences allowing them to unite. As soon as the gate opened, the duo ran off quickly on a play date. Coming together became a daily affair for the duo and they spent long hours at each others' place playing. Finally, they went on a 'real date'.

Is this love story of the canines any lesser than a love saga that we come across in day-to-day life?
Cupid strikes everyone; be it a human or an animal. Though no one has control over developing likingness, love and feelings for someone else, it can be challenging at times to stay resisted. Falling in love can be broadly categorised in three ways, i.e. love at first sight, gradual connection and platonic love.
Both Pax and Penny have once again defined that love has no boundaries.
Sourav Senapati, son of Premlal Senapati of Dedgaon Village under Bangomunda Block in Bolangir District, works at a renowned company in Germany’s Munich, where he met his soul mate Ema, who is also his colleague.
As the time passed by, they knew each other’s religions, cultures, traditions, life styles and food habits and became friends. Unbeknownst to them, love blossomed between them.
“Ema fell in love with our tradition, culture, cuisines and languages. After a three-year-long relationship, we decided to take our relationship to next level. Then we sought consent from our parents for marriage”, said the groom.
After few rounds of discussions, both the families fixed April 20 for solemnization of Sourav and Ema’s marriage. The venue was a private hotel in Bhubaneswar. In the presence of family members and guests of both the sides, the couple exchanged garlands following the Hindu traditions.
“The moment I donned the traditional marriage attire I felt to be on cloud nine. I am very happy to experience the culture here,” said the bride Ema.
Back in their hometown, Sourav’s family threw a grand reception. “We are happy and proud to get a beautiful daughter-in-law from Slovenia,” said an exalted groom’s father.
From Ema’s family 13 members attended the big day. According to the family members of the bride, they were touched by the hospitality and culture of India.
Bhola Nath Alok, who has been living with his wife's ashes urn for 32 years, has requested his family members to cremate her ashes urn along with his mortal remains when he dies.
For now, he has hung the urn from a mango tree inside his house premises in Purnea's Sipahi Tola locality.
Ram Naresh Bhakt, a litterateur of Purnea, who wrote a book on Bhola Nath Alok, said that he is the symbol of true love which is rarely seen these days.
"Alok's wife Padma Rani died 32 years ago. He preserved her urn and hung it from a mango tree in her honour. He used to offer rose and prayers every day to remember her.
"He deeply loved his wife when she was alive and didn't wish to be left alone even after her death. Thirty two years is a long time but he remembers her everyday, respects her and offers her prayer and flowers, showing his true love for her.
"He has even expressed his wish to put her ashes urn on his chest during his cremation after death. Such respect for spouses is rarely seen these days. I cannot remember any such example in the past several years," Bhakt said.
Police made the revelation after arresting the accused, identified as Santosh Sahu of Berhampur. As per police, Santosh had killed Suryakanti Sahu, his lover in a fit of revenge, after the girl's family which resides in Bhawanipatna, cancelled their marriage which had already been fixed.
Bolangir SP has confirmed that the accused is a jawan.
According to the police, Santosh and Suryakanti met on social media site Facebook and fell in love with each other. The duo decided to remain united for the next of their lives and their marriage proposal was also initially accepted by both the families.
However the wedding plans came undone when Santosh’s mother demanded a dowry of Rs 30 lakh which was outrightly rejected by Suryakanti's family.
“We had already given a go-ahead to their marriage proposal. But then, Santosh’s mother asked for a dowry of Rs 30 lakh, leading to the cancellation of the proposal,” explained Durga Sahu, Suryakanti’s father.
Consequently, Santosh who had since been allegedly harbouring a grudge against the girl's father Durga Sahu, found a soft target in Suryakanti to settle his score. He reportedly convinced Suryakanti and both eloped from their houses on December 5, said the police.
But the love story came to an end with a pathetic twist when surprisingly, Suryakanti's decomposed body was spotted near Shundhimunda village in on December 9.
The mystery unfolded during interrogation, and the police subsequently put the accused under arrest.

Despite hailing from the same town, surprisingly they never had met earlier, as if destiny had other plans for them.
It was almost eight years ago they happened to meet at a sewing factory in Chennai. Both Badal and Sunita fell for each other at the first glance. Though both are unable to speak or hear since they were born, the thing that is needed to gauge one’s feeling for the other was spared by the almighty; the oceanic eyes of Badal were deep enough to make Sunita take the plunge.
Following courtship for about a year, they tied the nuptial knot in Chennai before returning to their hometown in Bolangir where Badal took up a job at a hardware store and Sunita preferred to be a homemaker.
They both excelled at their respective jobs. While Badal acts as a one-man army, a jack of all trades at the hardware store which brought him laurels from his employer, Sunita who manages home never falters from her duty as a homemaker.
Ganesh Agrawal, the proprietor of the hardware store where Badal works heaped praise on him. “Initially I was apprehensive about his ability of shouldering the responsibility given his disability. But as time went by, Badal understood all the nuances of his job. In fact, we have become so much dependent on him that we feel helpless when he takes leave.”
After the birth of their girl child four years ago, the couple become more resolute and brought her up with all the love and affection parents can give to their child. Contrary to usual apprehensions, the child does not have any disability and is growing up fit and fine.
Badal’s sister Sarima Behera in whose lap the little girl would recite rhymes, said, “When she was born, we feared that she might lose some of her ability to speak or hear like her parents. But by God’s grace, everything was normal and she has all her organs intact.”
“She would interact with her parents in sign language and communicate normally with others too. She is a multi-tasker,” said a beaming Sarima.
Like many others in Odisha, this divyang couple is also miles away from government allowances and schemes. Incidentally, Badal’s mother, Rukmini Behera is also partially blind and rues government apathy in excluding them in the appropriate schemes. “We are three physically challenged persons in our family and we should have received a house under the Awaas scheme.”
The story of these love birds which has become a legend in the town resembles the famous Sanjay Leela Bhansali directed Bollywood movie Khamoshi – The Musical which featured Nana Patekar, Salman Khan and Manisha Koirala. However, the real-life couple, though unaware of the Bollywood movie, await their hour of fame through hard work and unflinching love for each other.
Jagannadh shared the first look poster of the film along with a brief note via his Twitter page on Thursday.
In the note, he wrote: "After finishing 'Mehbooba' script, I realised that I'm doing a highly intense and passionate love story for the first time ever which is completely out of repertoire of ideas. It's a soulful love story in the backdrop of 1971 Indo-Pakistan war."
He further wrote that irrespective of the blood relation he shares with his son Akash Puri; "it's his love towards cinema that's making me do this film with him".
Mangalore-based Neha Shetty has been roped in to play the leading lady. Sandeep Chowta will compose the music. The principal shooting starts from October.
"Mehbooba" will be shot in picturesque locales of Himachal Pradesh and will continue in Punjab and Rajasthan as well.
Sunita happens to be a citizen of Nepal, and a daughter of a well-established rubber farmer there.
Despite this astounding fact, both of them became engrossed in chats and calls, so much so that they realised they are made for each other. Sunita decided to cross the geographical barrier to stay with Tandi and his family.
Six months back, Sunita gave him the surprise of his life when she reached Bhubaneswar railway station to meet him. Tandi managed to convince his parents and then took Sunita to his village Luhurapali where both tied the nuptial knot at a temple.
"I was so madly in love with him that I couldn't stay away. I am very happy with him. The feeling is great," expressed Sunita Sangma.
"When she came to Bhubaneswar, I decided to leave hostel and applied for a distance course. I have managed to eke out a living by vegetable vending," said Chandramani.
Sunita's in-laws, on the other hand, tried hard to make her believe that she will not be able to lead a blissful life in their house, but to no avail. "Our house is in a dilapidated condition. I let her know that she will have to sacrifice a lot of things, and do daily chores. And she happily agreed. We are lucky to have her," said Chandramani's mother Gomati Tandi.
His father Jagdish Tandi is also a happy man now. "She respects us and our traditions. Yes, she can speak Hindi and Odia as well. She takes care of us and I feel she has all the qualities to be a good daughter-in-law," as put across by Jagdish.
The positive element here is Sunita's parents are in touch with her and have promised that would be coming to Odisha to meet their daughter very soon.
True, love has no boundaries.
