Prime Minister Narendra Modi recently attended the grand wedding ceremony of Dravya Dholakia, the son of diamond tycoon Savji Dholakia. The lavish festivities, hosted by the richest man in Surat, took place earlier this week in Gujarat's Dudhala village.

PM Modi arrived in a chopper to attend the marriage of the CEO of Dholakia Ventures. The 28-year-old businessman tied the knot with Janhvi at Het Ni Haveli in Dudhala village. Dravya Dholakia's father, who founded Hari Krishna Diamond Exports, has an estimated net worth of around 1.5 billion dollars as of 2023, equivalent to approximately 12,000 crore. Surat's diamond tycoon is known for showering his employees with lavish gifts every year on Diwali, including high-end cars and fixed deposits.
