Anant Ambani married Radhika Merchant after seven months of extravagant pre-wedding events.
The couple got married in a traditional ceremony on July 12, 2024, in Mumbai.
This was followed by a ‘Shubh Ashirwad’ the next day – a ceremony held for the couple to receive blessings from guests and elders.
The event culminated with the reception.
It was a very diverse guest list, with celebrities from across the world and from all walks of life in attendance.
Bollywood’s elite included Shah Rukh Khan, Aishwarya Rai, Ranveer Singh and Amitabh Bachchan.
Global celebrities including Kim and Khloe Kardashian, Zendaya’s stylist Law Roach, designer Prabal Gurung, and former UK Prime Ministers Tony Blair and Boris Johnson were also in attendance.
Dressed in a blue kurta with white trousers, WWE star John Cena was a surprise arrival.
He switched up his outfit to a navy sherwani and posed alongside SRK.
Cena tweeted: “A surreal 24 hours. So grateful for the Ambani family for their unmatched warmth and hospitality.
“An experience filled with so many unforgettable moments which allowed me to connect with countless new friends, including meeting @iamsrk and being able to tell him personally the positive effect he has had on my life.”
Kim and Khloe Kardashian turned heads with their outfits for the wedding.
For the first day, Kim wore an embellished red saree featuring tassels.
Khloe opted for a glamorous off-shoulder golden saree and paired it with an exquisite diamond necklace and finished off with chic black sunglasses.
On day two, Kim opted for a silver ensemble with matching embellishments all over it.
The full-sleeved blouse featured silver danglers draping over her arms.
The plunging neckline added a sultry edge to Kim’s look.
She accessorised her look with diamond jewellery, consisting of a statement necklace, a pair of earrings and a maang tikka.

Meanwhile, Khloe channelled Barbie vibes in a pink flared lehenga.
With silver work all over it, the blouse featured pearl sleeves that added a regal look.
Khloe’s hair was tied into a long ponytail and she completed her look with diamond jewellery, just like her sister.
