Guests at Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant’s pre-wedding celebrations in Gujarat’s Jamnagar will be treated to a day out in the lush greens followed by a gathering in traditional Indian attire on Sunday, the final day of the three-day gala.
Anant Ambani, the youngest son of Reliance Industries Chairman Mukesh Ambani and Nita Ambani, will wed Radhika Merchant, daughter of Viren Merchant, CEO of Encore Healthcare, later this year.
The family is hosting a lavish three-day pre-wedding gala for the couple in Gujarat’s Jamnagar with a guest list that boasts of global and Indian corporate czars, world leaders, royalty, celebrities and sports stars.
On Day 3, the two events planned for guests are ‘Tusker Trails’ and ‘Hashtakshar’. The first event will be an outdoor affair where the guests will enjoy the natural beauty of Jamnagar and for the last and final event, they’ll be dressed in ‘heritage Indian Wear’.
The Day 1 celebrations on Friday were called ‘An Evening in Everland’ where guests wore elegant cocktail attire. Day 2 on Saturday hosted ‘A Walk on the Wildside’ with ‘jungle fever’ being the suggested dress code. It was held in Vantara, the animal rescue and rehabilitation centre set up by Anant Ambani in Jamnagar. The guests then proceeded to ‘Mela Rouge’, a potpourri of desi activities in South Asian attires.
In her first performance in India, pop star Rihanna set the stage on fire on Friday night at the event. The international music sensation, who belted out hit songs such as “Diamonds”, “Where Have You Been”, “Rude Boy” and “Pour it Up”, had Indian film celebrities like Shah Rukh Khan-Gauri Khan, Ranveer Singh-Deepika Padukone, Shreya Ghoshal and Shiamak Davar grooving to her tunes.
The 38-year-old singer-songwriter thanked the Ambanis for making her a part of the family affair. “Thanks to the Ambani family I’m here tonight in honour of Anant and Radhika. Thank you for having me here. God bless your union. I wish you the best. Congratulations,” she said.
Meta founder Mark Zuckerberg with philanthropist-wife Priscilla Chan, Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates, former US president Donald Trump’s daughter Ivanka, corporate leaders Gautam Adani, Nandan Nilekani, and Adar Poonawala, cricketers Sachin Tendulkar, MS Dhoni, Rohit Sharma and spiritual leader Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev are also part of the pre-wedding festivities.
