But the disadvantage of arranged marriages is not involving or rather finding out from the couple whom you gonna marry if they want to be married to that particular person.

Just as like the youth of today you want a girl you just say with her friends but that girl is not attracted to you, taking this scenario to the past you would be married to that girl weather they like you or not but as a result we loose the essence of love.
