During the engagement ceremony, Anant Ambani's mother Nita Ambani gave a surprise performance.
Anant Ambani, the youngest son of Reliance Industries chairman Mukesh Ambani, today got engaged to Radhika Merchant in a traditional ceremony at the family's Mumbai home Antilia.
Radhika Merchant is the daughter of industrialist Viren Merchant. The families announced in 2019 that Anant and Radhika would get married.
"Age-old traditions such as the Gol Dhana and Chunari Vidhi – followed for generations among Gujarati Hindu families – were conducted with great enthusiasm in the family temple," the Ambanis said in a statement.
Gol Dhana, which means jaggery and coriander seeds, is a pre-wedding ceremony among Gujaratis. These items are distributed at the groom's place where the event takes place. The bride's family comes to the groom's home with gifts and sweets and then the couple exchange rings.
