Billionaire industrialist Gautam Adani and his wife, Priti Adani, were spotted at the Ajmer Sharif Dargah offering chadar to the shrine, according to a video posted by the news agency ANI on Wednesday, February 15. 

Ajmer Sharif Dargah is in Ajmer, Rajasthan, and honours the Sufi saint Khwaja Moinuddin Chishti. It is considered to be one of India's holiest Sufi shrines. 

Significance of Ajmer Sharif Dargah

According to the official website of Rajasthan Tourism, Khwaja Moinuddin Chishti is believed to be the direct descendant of Prophet Muhammad. During his world travel, he reached Ajmer via Lahore and lived in the city from 1192 to 1236 AD.

Mughal emperor Humayun, in Khwaja Moinuddin Chishti's honour, built the Ajmer Sharif Dargah shrine. The shrine has massive silver doors that lead into a courtyard where the tomb is located.

“Made of marble and gold plating, the actual tomb is guarded by a silver railing and a marble screen,” as per the Rajasthan Tourism website. 

Adani Wedding

Gautam Adani was recently in the news due to his son Jeet Adani's wedding on February 7, 2025. The event was held in Gujarat, and only close relatives and friends were invited to the private ceremony.

“With the blessings of Almighty God, Jeet and Diva tied the sacred knot of marriage today. The wedding took place today in Ahmedabad with traditional rituals and Shubh Mangal Bhaav among loved ones. It was a small and extremely private function, so we could not invite all the well-wishers even if we wanted to, for which I apologize. I sincerely seek blessings and love from all of you for my daughter Diva and Jeet,” said Gautam Adani in a social media post on X.

Mint reported earlier that Gautam Adani also donated ₹10,000 crore for various social causes during the wedding on Friday, February 7.
