Kim and Khloe Kardashian were among the international celebrities attending the extravagant three-day wedding of Anant Ambani, the youngest son of Asia’s richest man Mukesh Ambani, and his fiancée Radhika Merchant in Mumbai, India.
This high-profile event follows months of lavish pre-marriage celebrations, including a European cruise for 1,200 guests, a custom-built Hindu temple at the Ambani ancestral home, and private performances by global stars such as Rihanna and Justin Bieber.
The Kardashians shared glimpses of their arrival in India on social media, where they were welcomed with flower garlands at their luxury hotel. Among other notable guests spotted arriving in Mumbai were former British Prime Ministers Boris Johnson and Tony Blair.
Earlier festivities featured performances by renowned artists including Katy Perry, the Backstreet Boys, Pitbull, and Andrea Bocelli. Prominent figures like Mark Zuckerberg and Ivanka Trump have attended previous events hosted by the Ambani family.
The current celebrations are expected to surpass previous ones, with rumored attendees including Hillary Clinton, Mike Tyson, and John Cena. Mukesh Ambani, chairman of Reliance Industries and one of the world’s wealthiest individuals, is known for hosting opulent weddings, with his daughter’s 2018 wedding costing an estimated $100 million and featuring a performance by Beyoncé.
Mukesh Ambani has expanded Reliance Industries from its origins in oil and petrochemicals to encompass retail, telecommunications, and an Indian Premier League cricket team. His 27-floor residence, Antilia, is a notable Mumbai landmark, reportedly costing over $1 billion to build and employing a permanent staff of 600. Radhika Merchant, the bride, is the daughter of prominent pharmaceutical industry figures.
