After hosting Ganesh Chaturthi celebrations at their Mumbai home Antilia, the Ambani family organised a grand procession last night to bid goodbye to Bappa. On the evening of September 8, Reliance Foundation chairperson Nita Ambani joined the procession to take their Ganpati idol to the immersion spot at Chowpatty Beach. She was joined by younger son Anant Ambani and his wife Radhika Merchant.
Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant had tied the knot on July 12 after months of lavish pre-wedding festivities. Their high-profile wedding in Mumbai was attended by a galaxy of Bollywood stars, international celebrities like Kim Kardashian, industrialists, world leaders, and more.
During the hustle and bustle of the Ganpati procession, the newlyweds were filmed stealing a sweet moment of togetherness. A video shared by a fan club shows Radhika Merchant kissing Anant Ambani on the forehead.
The younger Ambani bahu was dressed in a blue kurta set, while the Ambani scion wore a traditional outfit in orange.
