As China's traditional Valentine's Day, Qixi Festival, is approaching, lovebirds in North China's Tianjin found they can now register their marriage at a local bank, one more new option for local couples to tie the knot. Apart from banks, Chinese newlyweds now have a variety of choices on marriage registration venues across the country as authorities in localities step up their efforts to encourage young people to get married. 
News that couples can now register their marriage at a bank was widely discussed on China's X-like Sina Weibo. The civil affairs bureau in Hexi district, Tianjin, associated with a local branch of the Postal Savings Bank of China, set up a love-themed bank service site where marriage registration service is offered on every Wednesday and Thursday mornings, the first of its kind across the country, domestic news portal yicai.com reported on Friday. 
According to a staff member at the Hexi district marriage registration office, combined with convenience and a more festive atmosphere, including a flower wall where couples can take photos and check in, the marriage registration site offers a ceremonial experience tailored to the preferences of younger couples, Beijing Youth Daily reported. 
In recent years, marriage registration is moving beyond traditional offices, with some places now setting up service centers in parks, tourist attractions, shopping malls, subway stations, cruise boats, music festivals, banks and even on snow-capped mountains, allowing couples to exchange vows in settings of their choice. 
In Beijing, three outdoor marriage registration sites were set up at Beijing Grand Canal Cultural Scenic Area, Jinghua Fumanyuan, and the Grand Canal Cruise on May 20 this year. They provide couples with a one-stop experience to let couples register their marriage, take photos, enjoy cultural experiences and create lasting keepsakes. Whereas the marriage registration site set up at the Suzhou Museum of Imperial Kiln Brick in Suzhou, East China's Jiangsu Province, uses the durability of imperial kiln bricks to symbolize lasting love and enduring marriage. 
To promote convenience of marriage registration, starting May 10, 2025, couples will no longer need to register marriages in the location of their hukou, or household registration. 
Since then, couples can get married on the spot while traveling. Many cities and tourist attractions have created new landmark venues for marriage registration, promoting marriage-registration tourism and opening up a new niche service by combining marriage registration with cultural tourism, yicai.com reported. 
Per previous media reports, travel spots including Sayram Lake in Northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region and Yulong Snow Mountain in Southwest China's Yunnan Province, have offered such services, allowing lovers to make special memory of marriage registration. 
According to He Yafu, an independent demography expert, diversified marriage registration venues are a valuable complement to marriage customs reform and a gateway to the "romance economy." They make getting married more attractive, convenient and flexible for young people, potentially giving a short-term boost to marriage registrations, He told the Global Times on Sunday.

二 |     JioHotstar recently rolled out an impressive slate of originals at a grand event and among the titles that immediately sparked curiosity was Kaattaan, headlined by Vijay Sethupathi. The streamer has now released a brief but gripping video that offers the first real glimpse into the series. It is directed by M Manikandan, the acclaimed filmmaker behind Kadaisi Vivasayi and Aandavan Kattalai, and marks a much-awaited reunion between the actor and director.The short video is packed with atmosphere and intrigue. Vijay Sethupathi appears in a traditional lungi and shirt, walking with unhurried menace into a festival crowd after tossing a stone to part the sea of people. He moves toward a man, raises a sickle to his throat, and delivers a simple message that lands like a threat from a much larger world: “Shivettan sent me.” The streamer captioned the post with a tease of what lies ahead. “Every crime has a story. Every story has a truth.”Reports indicate that Vijay Sethupathi is also producing the series, which adds another layer of personal investment to the project. Kaattaan also features Milind Soman in a significant role, with sources describing the show as a character driven saga that explores the many versions of a man through the people whose lives intersect with his. This Rashomon-style storytelling approach suggests a narrative that blurs the line between folklore and lived reality.          Every crime has a story. Every story has a truth.#HotstarSpecials #Kaattan | Coming Soon#SouthUnbound #JioHotstarSouthUnbound #JioHotstar #JioHotstarTamil#VijaySethupathi #AjithKumar #Balachandran #PradeepMilroyPeter pic.twitter.com/oG31pLUIa3     — JioHotstar (@JioHotstar) December 9, 2025                    A return to longform storytelling     Kaattaan signals Vijay Sethupathi’s full-fledged return to the web series format after his well-received turn in Raj and DK’s crime thriller Farzi. While he has headlined numerous films across languages during the past decade, longform storytelling is not new territory for him. Long before he became one of Tamil cinema’s most recognisable performers, he played the character Bharani in the Sun TV serial Penn in 2006.However, Kaattaan marks his first lead role in a Tamil streaming series at a time when the digital space is thriving with complex narratives and ambitious craftsmanship. With Manikandan at the helm, known for his grounded filmmaking and soulful writing, the pairing promises something rooted yet unpredictable. Manikandan’s ability to extract emotional truth from ordinary lives and Sethupathi’s instinct for characters who straddle moral greys make this collaboration one of the most exciting ones on the horizon.          The world of Kaattaan and what lies ahead     Although the makers have not shared character details or plot specifics, what is known so far hints at a world shaped by folklore, crime, and shifting identities. The title was earlier Muthu Engira Kaatan and the new version suggests the creation of a larger mythos built around the central figure.JioHotstar has stated that the series will arrive soon, though an exact launch date is still under wraps. The platform’s promotional push indicates that the show will be one of the key titles anchoring its upcoming lineup.For Vijay Sethupathi, Kaattaan arrives in the middle of an especially busy phase. He has Train with Mysskin gearing up, Arasan with Vetri Maaran and Silambarasan TR lined up, and a yet to be titled film with Puri Jagannadh in the works. Each project sees him explore widely different worlds, and Kaattaan appears to sharpen that versatility even further by placing him at the centre of a morally charged, multi perspective drama.If the first look is any indication, the series is shaping up to be a raw and compelling deep dive into the violent heart of a man whose legend shifts depending on who tells the story.Also Read: It’s a Wrap for Vijay Sethupathi and Puri Jagannadh’s Film。
