Popularly known as “Antilia Cha Raja”, the Ganpati idol was carried out in a vibrant rally filled with colour, music and decorated floats.

Playful moments with colours

A new video has surfaced on Instagram showing the Ambani family adding a splash of colour to the farewell rituals. In the clip, Anant Ambani is seen holding a plate of colour as his wife, Radhika Merchant, gently takes some and playfully applies it to his face.

Anant is then spotted applying colour to Shloka Ambani before walking towards his mother, Nita Ambani. In a tender moment, Nita smiles and hesitates, prompting Anant to refrain from putting colour on her. Meanwhile, Radhika is seen applying colour to other family members and friends gathered on the Ganpati pandal stage.
