Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant were married in a glamorous, star-studded ceremony in Mumbai last night. The billionaire Ambani heir wed his longtime girlfriend in the presence of friends, family, and numerous international VIPs.
The opulent wedding seamlessly combined Gujarati rituals with Western traditions. The couple exchanged varmalas and took pheras around the sacred fire, and also read wedding vows to each other.
A video that has gone viral shows Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant discussing their “dream home” during their wedding vows. Holding a microphone, the new Ambani daughter-in-law expressed that their home would be a place of love and unity.
“It’ll be where we are… wherever we go, it will be where we are together,” she said.
Anant Ambani then shared his vows in Hindi. “Radhika, with Shree Krishna’s blessings, main pratigya karta hun ki hum mil kar apne sapno ka khoobsurat ghar banayenge (I pledge that we will build our beautiful dream home together),” vowed the Ambani heir.
“Our home will not be a place. It will be a feeling of love and togetherness, no matter where we are,” continued Anant Ambani in Hindi, ending his vows with “Jai Shree Krishna.”
