Mukesh Ambani and Nita Ambani are going all out as doting parents for son Anant Ambani’s wedding to Radhika Merchant. They hosted a pre-wedding bash in Jamnagar, Gujarat earlier this year followed by a European cruise for their family and celebrity friends. Ahead of the big day, they were joined by several stars for other pre-wedding celebrations such as haldi, mameru ceremony, a garba night, sangeet and mehendi. This wedding is definitely the event of the year. But despite being one of the richest families in the country, the Ambanis have their relatable moments. See for yourself:

Mukesh and his Aadhaar card
During Lok Sabha Elections 2024, a video of Mukesh arriving at a poll booth went viral on the internet. In his hand, the country’s richest man was carrying his Aadhaar card, safely kept in a transparent pouch. Many social media users lauded the billionaire’s simplicity and down-to-earth attitude
Mithaai aur namkeen ka dabba
Employees working at Reliance got a gift box from the Ambani family to celebrate Anant and Radhika’s big day. Several pictures of the red and gold gift box surfaced on social media. Inside were four packets of Haldiram’s namkeen including aloo bhujia and lite chiwda along with a silver coin and a box of sweets
Billionaire sipping on ₹31 ORS tetra pack
Back in June, Mukesh attended Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s oath-swearing ceremony. He was seated next to his good friend and Bollywood actor Shah Rukh Khan. Well, pictures of the two sipping tetra packs of ORS aka oral rehydration solutions worth ₹31 went viral on social media. Mukesh and SRK not only reminded fans to stay hydrated but also left them gushing over their simplicity. This was definitely the most relatable Ambani moment, especially during the heat wave
While not all of us are invited to Anant and Radhika’s wedding, at least we can relate to the richest man of India.
