Billionaire Mukesh Ambani and his family visited the Lalbaugcha Raja temple in Mumbai on Friday night to offer prayers during Ganesh Chaturthi.
What Happened: Ambani was accompanied by his younger son Anant Ambani, daughter-in-law Radhika Merchant, and elder daughter-in-law Shloka Mehta. They entered the temple amid tight security to seek blessings from Lord Ganesh.
The Ambanis were surrounded by numerous devotees and security personnel as they made their way to the idol. Nita Ambani, chairperson of Reliance Foundation and Mukesh Ambani’s wife, was not seen at the temple.
On Sunday night, the family performed the immersion ceremony for their Ganesh idol at Chowpatty Beach. Anant and Radhika were seen dancing enthusiastically to the beats of drums. The family and their celebrity friends, including Orry and Shanaya Kapoor, traveled from their home, Antilia, to the immersion spot.

Last Saturday, the Ambanis hosted a grand celebration at Antilia for Ganesh Chaturthi, attended by Bollywood stars and family members, including Anil Ambani and Tina Ambani.
Why It Matters: The Ambani family’s visit to Lalbaugcha Raja and their grand celebrations for Ganesh Chaturthi comes on the heels of several significant family events.
Recently, Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant tied the knot in a lavish ceremony choreographed by renowned artist Shiamak Davar. The wedding featured performances by Bollywood legends and showcased Davar’s exceptional talent.
Following the wedding, there were rumours about a post-wedding bash at the seven-star hotel Stoke Park in London. However, the venue’s management denied these claims, stating no such celebrations were planned. The Ambanis had leased the estate in 2021 for $79 million, but it has been closed for renovations since then.
Moreover, during a pre-wedding celebration at Château de la Croix des Gardes in Cannes, Radhika Merchant wore a ₹12 crore necklace.
Additionally, a heartwarming video of Mukesh and Nita Ambani with their grandchildren was released during the sangeet ceremony, further highlighting the family’s close-knit bond. The video featured the couple’s four grandchildren playing with balloons, adding to the joyous atmosphere of the event.
