Anant Ambani was seen outside his home, Antilia, shortly before the “Mangal Utsav” event on Sunday evening. This event marks the second round of receptions following his marriage to Radhika Merchant. The groom departed for the grand reception at Jio World Centre in Bandra Kurla Complex (BKC), Mumbai, in a silver Mercedes.
Similar to the main wedding ceremony and Saturday's “Shubh Aashirwad” reception, the billionaire family invited a wide range of guests.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi attended Saturday's event, blessing the newlyweds as they touched his feet. PM Modi was escorted to the stage by Anant Ambani's parents, Mukesh and Nita Ambani. The Ambanis hosted the "blessing ceremony’’ for friends and family to meet the couple and wish them a happy married life.
Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant got married in a regal ceremony late Friday night, following a series of extravagant pre-wedding events in India and abroad. These festivities featured performances by pop stars including Rihanna, Justin Bieber, and Katy Perry.
The wedding rituals, including the couple exchanging garlands and walking around the sacred fire, began on Friday and were completed past midnight.
Anant Ambani is the youngest son of Nita and Mukesh Ambani, while the bride, Radhika, is the daughter of Shaila and Viren Merchant.
The wedding and all receptions in Mumbai are taking place at Jio World Centre, owned by the Ambanis.
The guest list for the wedding included Kim Kardashian and her sister Khloe, former British prime ministers Tony Blair and Boris Johnson, former US special envoy for climate John Kerry, and Saudi Aramco CEO Amin H Nasser. Top Indian celebrities such as Shah Rukh Khan, Amitabh Bachchan, Priyanka Chopra, and Rajinikanth were also in attendance, among numerous other Bollywood stars.
