New Delhi Reuters —Charter jets for tycoons and celebrities, a performance by Rihanna and directions to don “jungle fever” outfits when visiting an animal rescue center — that’s how billionaire Mukesh Ambani is kickstarting big fat Indian wedding celebrations for his son.
The occasion of the moment that has India transfixed is a three-day pre-wedding jamboree for his youngest son Anant Ambani, 28, who is set to marry his long-time girlfriend Radhika Merchant, 29.
Anant is a director at Reliance’s new energy business and one of Ambani’s three children who are the heirs to his empire.
Ambani also made headlines with his daughter Isha’s wedding in 2018 which was described by some as a mini-Davos summit.
