In a bizarre yet symbolic gesture, a man in Assam celebrated his divorce by bathing in 40 litres of milk, declaring to the camera, “From today, I am free!”
The man, identified as Manik Ali, a resident of Nalbari district, chose to celebrate his “freedom” in an unconventional way. A video of the incident has been doing rounds the corner on social media platforms.
In the video, Ali can be seen standing outside his house, over a plastic sheet with four buckets of milk. He used one bucket after another to bathe and celebrated his divorce.

He also captured the entire celebration on camera and was heard screaming, “I am free from today. She kept eloping with her lover. I stayed silent for the sake of our family’s peace.”
As per the local reports, Ali claimed that his wife was having an extra-marital affair and had eloped with her lover quite a few times. Going against the wife’s decision, Ali was trying to ‘save’ the marriage for the ‘sake of their daughter’. However, when nothing changed, the two finally got divorced.
After the legal proceedings were over, he decided to make the occasion memorable by pouring four buckets (approximately 40 litres) of milk on himself in front of the cameras.
