Many users took to the comments section to express their thoughts. One user questioned, "Why is her father-in-law pulling her by touching her this way?!" Another comment said, "She seemed uncomfortable once she realized it was her father-in-law. Even my own father wouldn’t pull me like that." Others shared similar views, finding the act unusual.

On the other hand, some people defended Mukesh Ambani, stating that he likely treats Radhika as his daughter. A supportive comment read, "Ambani sir treats his daughter-in-law like his own daughter." Another user posted, "It’s just like a father protecting his daughter. She’s lucky to have that bond." One more person added, "He’s just protecting her from the crowd; it was a spontaneous reaction."

Meanwhile, another video featuring Radhika Merchant and her mother-in-law Nita Ambani went viral last week. During the Ganesh Puja, some viewers noticed Radhika placing her hand on her stomach, sparking speculation that she might be pregnant, though no confirmation has been given yet.

Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant’s wedding was a grand event held in July, attended by many Bollywood celebrities during the pre-wedding festivities and the ceremony itself.
