The anticipation surrounding the Ambani family’s latest celebration reached fever pitch as they gathered at Mumbai’s Jio World Convention Centre ahead of Anant Ambani’s wedding. Proud parents Mukesh and Nita Ambani, along with their children Akash, Shloka, Isha, and their respective spouses, struck a pose for the cameras, marking a special “fam jam” moment before the evening’s festivities.
Anant Ambani, the youngest scion of Reliance Industries’ Chairman, is set to tie the knot with Radhika Merchant in what promises to be a grand celebration steeped in Indian cultural splendor. Dubbed ‘An Ode to Varanasi,’ the wedding’s theme pays homage to the ancient city known for its spirituality, artistry, and culinary delights.
Guests will indulge in a feast reminiscent of Banaras’ bustling streets, featuring a mouthwatering array of chaat, mithai, lassi, and chai. The event’s decor will showcase traditional Indian arts like brasswork and Kanjeevaram sarees, alongside exquisite Polki jewelry and rosewood furniture, offering a glimpse into the country’s rich heritage.

Under the theme ‘Resplendently Indian,’ the wedding attire will be a vibrant display of India’s diverse handlooms and craftsmanship, ensuring a visual spectacle that honors the nation’s cultural tapestry. Musical performances by renowned artists like Hariharan, Shankar Mahadevan, and Shreya Ghoshal, as well as international sensations like Luis Fonsi, promise to captivate guests throughout the ceremonies.
The celebrations kicked off months ago with a pre-wedding gala in Gujarat, featuring global stars like Rihanna and Justin Bieber, followed by philanthropic gestures such as a mass wedding for underprivileged couples. Events like the Sangeet, highlighted by Justin Bieber’s performance, and vibrant rituals like the ‘haldi’ ceremony have set the stage for tonight’s main event.
The guest list reads like a who’s who of global influencers, including former UK Prime Minister Tony Blair, cricket legend Sachin Tendulkar, and Hollywood icons Kim and Khloe Kardashian. Their arrival in Mumbai has sparked a frenzy on social media, underscoring the event’s status as a cultural landmark.
As the sun sets over Mumbai, the Jio World Convention Centre buzzes with excitement, ready to host an unforgettable evening that blends tradition with opulence. For the Ambani family and their esteemed guests, tonight’s wedding promises not just to be a union of hearts, but a celebration of India’s rich cultural heritage on a global stage.
