As excitement mounts for the forthcoming three-day pre-wedding extravaganza of Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant in Gujarat’s Jamnagar, all eyes are on the enchanting love story that brought them together. Mukesh Ambani and Nita Ambani have announced the grand celebration scheduled for March 1, 2, and 3, extending invitations to the creme de la creme of Bollywood.
The festivities commemorate a year since Anant and Radhika’s engagement, which commenced with an intimate ceremony followed by a lavish bash for close family and friends. But how did their journey from childhood companions to life partners unfold? Here’s a peek into their heartwarming tale.
While the intricacies of their romance remain largely shielded from the public eye, reports suggest that Anant and Radhika’s bond traces back to their early years. Their friendship deepened over time, blossoming into a romantic relationship that caught the public’s attention in 2018. A viral photograph capturing their tender moment sparked speculation about their budding romance, propelling them into the spotlight.

The formalization of Anant and Radhika’s union commenced with the Roka ceremony at the revered Shrinathji Temple in Nathdwara, Rajasthan, in December 2022.

The star-studded affair witnessed the presence of Bollywood luminaries such as Shah Rukh Khan, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, and Sachin Tendulkar, showering their blessings on the couple.
Anant, scion of the Ambani dynasty, holds degrees from Brown University in the USA and currently spearheads the energy business at Reliance Industries Limited (RIL). Meanwhile, Radhika, a graduate of New York University, serves as a Director on the Board of Encore Healthcare, showcasing her prowess beyond academia as a trained Indian classical dancer.
