Nita Ambani recently shared her thoughts on her son Anant Ambani’s lavish wedding, the importance of promoting Indian culture, and her family’s legacy. In an exclusive interview with Haslinda Amin on Bloomberg Television, she addressed the criticisms surrounding the extravagant celebrations, stating that every parent wants to do their best for their children’s wedding. The wedding of Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant garnered global attention, sparking debates about the lavishness of the festivities.
Nita Ambani’s Perspective on the Wedding
In response to criticism about the wedding’s opulence, Nita explained that the event was an opportunity to highlight India’s traditions and culture. “I think it was a made-in-India brand that came out,” she shared, adding that she was happy to bring Indian heritage to the forefront. For Nita, the wedding wasn’t just about grandeur but about showcasing the beauty and richness of Indian culture to the world.
A Moment That Touched Nita’s Heart
One of the most touching moments for Nita Ambani came when her son, Anant, reflected on his personal struggles with obesity before his wedding. Having battled asthma and weight issues from a young age, Anant confidently addressed the crowd before stepping on stage as the bridegroom. “It’s not what I am physically. It’s what my heart is,” he told his mother. This moment, where he held his bride’s hand, was deeply emotional for Nita, marking a milestone in her son’s journey.
The Ambani Family Legacy
During the interview, Nita Ambani also spoke about her children’s roles within the Ambani business empire. She mentioned how each of them—twins Akash and Isha, along with Anant—has chosen their unique path while contributing to the family legacy.
Anant and Radhika’s Wedding Celebrations
Anant Ambani’s wedding, held on July 12 in Mumbai, was a high-profile affair, attended by dignitaries from across the world. The celebrations included two lavish pre-wedding events, one in Jamnagar and the other in Europe aboard a cruise. The following day, on July 13, Prime Minister Narendra Modi attended the Shubh Ashirwad ceremony, blessing the newlyweds on their new journey together.
The wedding, a grand affair filled with emotional moments and cultural displays, has cemented its place in the hearts of those who celebrated it, reflecting both personal and national pride.
