How does the rishta process usually start in Pakistan?

Direct answer
The rishta process usually starts when a person, family member or trusted contact identifies a possible match and shares basic information such as age, education, city, family background and expectations.
There is no single correct path. Some families begin through relatives, community networks or matchmakers; others use online matrimonial platforms first and involve families after an initial profile review.
Use the first step to confirm basic fit and consent before moving into deeper family meetings or private contact sharing.
