After festivities estimated to have cost more than $600m, power couple Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant are set to marry in Mumbai
To many in India, it is hard to remember a time when the Ambani wedding wasn’t taking place.
The marriage of the son of India’s richest man, billionaire Mukesh Ambani, to the daughter of a millionaire was never going to be a humble affair. The industrialist is now worth an estimated $120bn and over the years the Ambani family has not shied away from flashing its cash extravagantly, whether on the world’s most expensive home – a 27-storey skyscraper mansion that towers over Mumbai – or on what was previously India’s most expensive wedding, spending almost $100m on their daughter’s nuptials back in 2018 where Beyoncé performed.
