From March 1st to 3rd, India’s upper class and global celebrities will gather in Jamnagar, Gujarat to attend the pre-wedding celebrations of famous queens Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant. The wedding attracted a lot of attention because it comes from the richest family in Asia. It is reported that Zuckerberg, Hillary and others will be invited to participate.
Anant Ambani is the youngest son of Mukesh Ambani, chairman of Reliance Industries of India. His father also has a more popular identity-the richest man in Asia.
Anant, who is about to turn 29, is currently a member of the board of directors of Reliance Industries.
In January 2023, Anant got engaged in Mumbai with his childhood sweetheart Radhika, the daughter of Indian pharmaceutical giant Viren Merchant. Their official wedding will be held in Mumbai on July 12 this year. And their choice to hold the pre-wedding celebration ceremony in Gujarat seems to have a deeper meaning, because Gujarat is the hometown of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the place where he made his political fortune.
According to India's "Economic Times" report, Ambani himself has a close relationship with Modi and is a loyal executor of Modi's policies. The wealth of the Ambani family even exceeds the GDP of some small countries. Its industries are spread across India and the world, and have a great impact on the Indian economy.
The marriage of two major business families has attracted widespread attention. For this pre-wedding celebration, the Ambani family not only built 14 new Hindu temple buildings in Jamnagar, but also invited celebrities from all over the world to participate in the pre-wedding celebration.
It is reported that about 1,000 guests were invited to the celebration, including Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg, Microsoft founder Bill Gates, Disney CEO Iger, former US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, Qatar Prime Minister Mohammed, etc. . Pop singer Rihanna will sing at the event, making this her first visit to India.
Indian weddings have always been famous for their exquisite luxury. In the eyes of Indian wealthy people, weddings can display wealth that ordinary people cannot imagine. Guests will come from all over the world on chartered flights, and celebrities can get huge rewards for just attending briefly.
The celebrations before the wedding alone are very grand. The luxuriousness of the pre-wedding celebrations of the youngest son of Asia's richest man can be seen from his daughter's wedding.
According to a report by Xinhua News Agency in 2018, Aisha Ambani, the daughter of Asia’s richest man, held an engagement party at a lakeside manor in Italy in September of that year. Video captured by attendees showed Clinton dancing with Shah Rukh Khan, one of India's biggest movie stars, while former U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry could be seen dancing just a few steps away. The person singing live at that time was Beyoncé.
