Pillow Talk, traditional game, Indian wedding
Pillow talk is played to test the compatibility and wavelength matching.

In the game of pillow talk, a pillow is held between the shoulders of the bride and groom who sit with their backs to each other. They are asked questions to which they have to reply in "Yes` or "No" by nodding their heads. Since they cannot see each other they do not know how the other is responding. The questions can be as simple and lighthearted as, "Have you found your dream partner" or "Are you going to be the big boss at home" and "If your partner gets angry will you do the pampering" plus questions on their likes and dislikes. For the gathering it is great fun to watch the newly-weds reply similarly or differently to each query. Accordingly they are given the title of "I want to know you better - couple" if their score is low or "Two hearts yet one soul - couple" if their score is high.
