Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant engaged
Mukesh Ambani’s son Anant Ambani is now formally engaged to Radhika Merchant. The ceremony took place amidst family, friends and revered traditions at the Ambani Residence.
The couple exchanged rings after Gol Dhana and Chunari vidhi ceremony. Gol Dhana – literally meaning jaggery and coriander seeds – is a pre-wedding ceremony in Gujarati traditions, akin to an engagement. These items are distributed at the groom’s place where the event takes place. The bride’s family comes at the groom’s residence with gifts and sweets and then the couple exchanges rings. After exchanging rings the couple seek blessings from their elders.
The evening festivities began with Isha Ambanigoing to the Merchant residence to invite them and Radhika to the evening’s functions. The Merchant family was received warmly by the Ambani family at their residence amidst Aarti and chanting of mantras.
