The pre-wedding festivities of Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant kickstarted this Friday and we saw business tycoons, politicians, Bollywood and sports personalities gracing the mega event. The biggest highlight of the event was the electrifying performance of Rihanna.
To welcome the guests, Mukesh Ambani delivered a heartwarming speech as he said, “Our esteemed friends and family. Namaste and good evening to each and every one of you. In the Indian tradition, we respectfully describe guests as Atithis. ‘Atithi Devo Bhava’, which means ‘Guests are like Gods’. When I did Namaste to you, it meant that the Divine in me is pleased to acknowledge the Divine in you. Aap sab ne iss shaadi ke mahaul ko mangalmay bana diya hai. Dhanyavaad! Bahut bahut dil se dhanyavaad!”
“Friends, Family. As Anant and Radhika embark on a journey of lifelong partnership, your blessings will yield a perennial harvest of good fortune whose abundance will never diminish. Today, my father Dhirubhai is also showering his profuse blessings from high up in the heavens,” he added.
Mukesh called
Anant and Radhika
‘Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi’ and added, “Friends, now let me say a few words about Anant & Radhika. Anant in Sanskrit means ‘That which has no end’. It means Infinite. I see infinite potential in Anant! Main Anant mein Anant Shakti dekhata hoon. Whenever I see Anant, I see my father Dhirubhai in him. His same can do, will do, nothing is
impossible attitude. And in Radhika, he has found an ideal life partner. She is a reservoir of immense creative energy. She is a quiet fountain of love and care. Quite aptly, Radhika has the name of Lord Krishna’s favourite consort. Radhika and Anant. Anant and Radhika. Yeh to ‘Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi’ hai!”
