Guests were having a good time at the wedding of a local farmer's daughter, complete with DJ songs being played.

One of the guests asked the DJ to play a song on loop. However, some people objected to this, according to IANS.

It was then he was hit with a stick subsequently falling unconscious.

He was taken to a private hospital where his condition further worsened and he was referred to a medical centre in Lucknow, according to IANS. However, he died on the way.
