The pre-wedding took place in Jamnagar.
Before the wedding, a pre-wedding function was held in Jamnagar, Gujarat from March 1 to 3. There was a gathering of VIPs at that event which lasted for 3 days. Famous personalities from Bollywood to Hollywood attended the pre-wedding event of Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant. Many celebrities performed at it.
For this reason the marriage takes place in Mumbai.
On the question of holding a pre-wedding in Gujarat, Anant Ambani said in an interview to a TV channel that Jamnagar in Gujarat is the birthplace of his grandmother Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani. That is why it has always been special for him. At the same time, he is also inspired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s call to ‘get married in India’, which is why he has chosen Jamnagar for his pre-wedding. But this is not the first time that the Ambani family has come to Jamnagar in Gujarat in this manner; earlier too the Ambani family had come to Jamnagar on important occasions. Reports say that inspired by Prime Minister Modi’s call to ‘get married in India’, the Ambani family got Anant Ambani married in Mumbai.
