Nita Ambani responds to criticism over Anant-Radhika’s lavish wedding: ’We are proud that…’

Nita Ambani recently responded to the criticism over lavishness of the Anant Ambani-Radhika Merchant wedding saying ‘every parent wants to do their best for their children’s wedding’ and they are proud that they could bring ‘Indian traditions, Indian heritage, and Indian culture to centrestage’

During a Bloomberg TV interview, Nita Ambani was asked, “There were some critics out there talking about how ostentatious the lavishness of the wedding. Does it bother you when you hear those criticisms?”

To this, she replied, “You know every parent wants to do their best for their children’s wedding. And that’s what we did in all this. I think it was a made in India brand that came out.”

“I am happy that I was able to kind of bring to the centrestage our Indian traditions, Indian heritage, and Indian culture,” she continued.

About the most precious moment from the wedding,Nita Ambani expressed, “My son Anant has been fighting obesity from a very young age because of his asthma and he went up on a stage as a confident bridegroom, he told me ‘Mom, it’s not what I am physically. It’s what my heart is’. And I saw him holding his life partner’s hand, I think that’s what was the most touching feeling”

Anant Ambani married Radhika Merchant on July 12 in Mumbai, with distinguished guests from all over the world attending it.

The next day, on July 13, Prime Minister Narendra Modi attended the Shubh Ashirwad ceremony, where he met the newlyweds and extended his blessings for their new journey together.

Before their wedding, the couple hosted two extravagant pre-wedding celebrations—one in Jamnagar and another aboard a luxury cruise in Europe.

Reliance Industries Chairman Mukesh Ambani visited Maha Kumbh on Tuesday with his family and participated in a yagya at Parmarth Triveni Pushp in Arail, officials here said. Besides Mukesh, Kokilaben Ambani, Shloka Ambani, Anant Ambani, and Radhika Merchant, visited the Parmarth Triveni Pushp.
