With almost a thousand guests, 500 dishes, and a multimillion dollar budget, the son of Asia’s richest man is said to have celebrated his impending marriage.
During the three-day spectacle hosted by Anant Ambani and his fiancée, Radhika Merchant, Bollywood celebrities mixed with tech billionaires, sports stars, and even Ivanka Trump, the daughter of Donald Trump.
Audiences in India and elsewhere have been enthralled with the occasion, according to BBC News, and have been soaking up every detail that has emerged from his father Mukesh Ambani’s party in the Gujarati city of Jamnagar over the weekend.
Due to its enormous size, the local airport was temporarily given international status because it saw travelers from all over the nation and the globe. According to airport officials, about 130 aircraft came for the occasion, bringing celebrities like Mark Zuckerberg and Bill Gates to the area.
A US musician allegedly paid $7 million to appear.
The majority of attendees lodged in opulent “glamping” tents close to the event site, providing a degree of extravagance that most people could only dream of, let alone afford. They were reportedly able to select from over 500 delicacies prepared by numerous international chefs.
In addition, stylists, laundry services, and hair and makeup artists were there to assist any guests in getting ready for the themed events, which were reportedly meticulously planned out with a nine-page schedule.
Pop sensation Rihanna’s historic debut performance in India was the event’s high point. The BBC stated that she was reportedly paid roughly $7 million (£5.5 million) for the gig.
Her hit songs were also performed on stage by some of India’s biggest movie stars.
Anant Ambani’s pet project, a 3,000-acre refuge with thousands of animals living there, was opened to the guests.
But it wasn’t just about the celebration. According to local media, Mukesh Ambani, the head of Reliance Industries, has had 14 new temples built in the city. Ambani’s net fortune is reported by Forbes to be $115 billion.
Now that the wedding is scheduled to take place in Mumbai in July, all eyes will probably be on it.
