This year's most lavish wedding features an A-list guest roster, performances by Bollywood and international celebrities, and fashion that could grace any runway. And this is just the prelude to the main event. Anant Ambani, the youngest son of Reliance Industries Chairman Mukesh Ambani, and Radhika Merchant, daughter of industrialist Viren Merchant, celebrated their sangeet ceremony on July 5; their official wedding is set for the 12th. Among the high-profile attendees were Sidharth Malhotra and his wife, Kiara Advani; Salman Khan; Varun Dhawan; Shahid Kapoor and Mira Rajput; and Vicky Kaushal.
The sangeet ceremony boasted remarkable musical performances, featuring stars like Katy Perry, Rihanna, Shakira, and even the Backstreet Boys. The latest addition to this illustrious lineup was Justin Bieber, who performed at the sangeet on Friday (June 5). Bieber, dressed in his typical casual attire, entertained the crowd with hits like Baby, Love Yourself, Peaches, and Sorry. Bollywood was not left out either; Vicky Kaushal and Shehnaaz Gill danced energetically to Tauba Tauba. Actors Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, and Ranveer Singh grooved to Salman Khan's No Entry title track, with Khan himself delivering a dynamic performance on Aisa Pehli Baar Hua Hai.
The fashion at the event was equally noteworthy. The bride and groom, Radhika and Anant, were the epitome of elegance. Radhika wore a chandelier-inspired outfit with pastel hues, Swarovski crystals, and an off-shoulder crystal statement blouse, while Anant opted for a gold-and-blue ensemble by Abu Jani Sandeep Khosla. Kiara Advani embraced old-school glamour in a Tarun Tahiliani ensemble with a pearl-encrusted bustier, and her hair was impeccable. Deepika Padukone, in a Kalki 2898 AD sari by Torani, looked every bit the elegant actress. Ananya Panday sparkled in a sequin-rich sari by Manish Malhotra, complemented by silver jewelry and subtle makeup. Sara Ali Khan also chose a Manish Malhotra creation, a lehenga-style sari adorned with pearls, sequins, and crystals, featuring a fishtail skirt. Amitabh Bachchan’s granddaughter, Navya Nanda, was stunning in a red skirt set paired with a conical bustier and a cape by Abujani Jani Sandeep. Janhvi Kapoor dazzled in a resplendent lehenga with peacock feathers by Manish Malhotra, accessorized with cuff earrings by Mahesh Notandass. Mira Kapoor opted for a sophisticated, intricately embroidered lehenga from Arpita Mehta.
