Happy Velan-time day

You may have an alternative version of the origin of "Valentine day" but I recently came across an authentic version, so pay attention please:
Look at the picture provided and ignore the flowers (although they have some meanings as will be apparant later on folks) and the mat that this instrument rests on.
This instrument, called Velan (or Belan) has been used for many purposes usually it flattens the dough into a flat bread. Its uses also include flattening other things, like a misbehaving child's demeanor or overly domineering male.
It is said that in Gujuraat area of India where Patels abound and they were accused of maltreating their wives, so one fine morning (it happened to be 14th of February) the wife could not take it any more and picked up her Velan (the amazing instrument) that she was using for making bread and finding it convenient, charged on the "insurgent" Patel.
She found tha instrument very effective in influencing the husband's behavior in her favor and the word got around until more Patelans (feminine of Patel) started using it so that it became a tradition for the Patelans to keep the Patels from behaving adversely. Not only that, Patels reacted by getting flowers and other presents to gain the favor of their wives. The custom became popular in the West also and 14th of Feb got fixed as Velan Time day gradually as it became more wifdespread (I thought I made a typo error here) in the West it changed to Velantine day. Now, one of the meanings of the Urdu word "Patelna" is ----beating (Checked it in Feerozeson's Urdu Dictionary) , lending truth and authenticity to this story folks.
