Notably, American singer Justin Bieber gave a stunning performance at the couple’s sangeet ceremony, which was attended by numerous Bollywood celebrities, models, directors, and sportspersons.

Before the grand wedding ceremony, Nita Ambani, the founder, and chairman of Reliance Foundation, visited the Kashi Vishwanath Temple in Varanasi to seek blessings.

On July 2, Mukesh and Nita Ambani organized a mass wedding for the underprivileged at Swami Vivekanand Vidyamandir in Palghar.

Why It Matters: The Ambani-Merchant wedding has been a subject of interest for a while.

The couple’s pre-wedding celebrations, including a luxury cruise from Palermo to the south of France, and a grand masquerade ball at the historic Château de la Croix des Gardes in Cannes, France, drew significant attention.

The closure of the bay area for the event, a first in the history of the picturesque town, caused outrage among locals in Portofino, Italy.

Despite the controversy, the wedding has continued to be a grand affair, with the presence of high-profile guests from various sectors.
