Asian follower getting married (5)
I believe the answer is:
tamil
'asian' is the definition.
(Tamil is an example)
'follower getting married' is the wordplay.
'follower' becomes 'tail' (tail is a kind of follower).
'getting' is an insertion indicator.
'married' becomes 'm' (abbreviation, e.g. in genealogy).
'tail' going around 'm' is 'TAMIL'.
(Other definitions for tamil that I've seen before include "Dravidian people of India and Sri Lanka" , "Native of south India or Sri Lanka" , "Southern Indian language" , "Asian language" , "S. India/Sri Lankan person, tongue" .)
