The pre-wedding rituals and programs of Anant Ambani, the younger son of the country's biggest industrialist Mukesh Ambani and Nita Ambani, are starting from March 1. Anant Ambani is going to marry his fiancee Radhika Merchant in July. Before this, Anant and Radhika's three-day pre-wedding functions have started in Jamnagar, Gujarat.
Jamnagar is ready for this grand pre-wedding to be held from 1st to 3rd March. From Bollywood-Hollywood stars to political personalities, big businessmen and international guests are participating here. However, why did the Ambani family, one of the richest families in the world, choose Jamnagar for the pre-wedding function instead of Mumbai or any foreign location? Let us know about the specialty of Jamnagar and its history.
Why is Anant-Radhika's pre-wedding function being held in Jamnagar only?
Actually, Anant Ambani's grandmother and Mukesh Ambani's mother Kokilaben Ambani was born in Jamnagar itself. Whereas Dhirubhai Ambani and Mukesh Ambani started their business from Jamnagar itself. In such a situation, the Ambani family has a special attachment to Jamnagar. Anant Ambani also grew up in Jamnagar. This is the reason why the Ambani family chose Jamnagar for the pre-wedding festivities of Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant.
