The wedding of Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant at the Jio World Centre created a spectacle of star-studded attendance. Among the prominent guests were the Bachchan family, who appeared somewhat fragmented during the event.
Amitabh Bachchan arrived hand-in-hand with wife Jaya Bachchan, and they were joined by their son Abhishek Bachchan, daughter Shweta Nanda, son-in-law Nikhil Nanda, and grandchildren Navya and Agastya. The group exuded cheerfulness, posing together for the eager paparazzi awaiting their arrival.
Shortly after, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan made her entrance with daughter Aaradhya. Aishwarya, adorned in a striking red anarkali suit complemented by an emerald necklace, and Aaradhya, looking charming in a green suit, were a sight to behold. The mother-daughter duo first greeted veteran actor Rekha before stepping forward for the photo session, distinct from the unified Bachchan ensemble.
This separation did not go unnoticed by fans, sparking curiosity on social media. Questions and speculations arose about the dynamics within the family, with some expressing surprise at the evident divide. The scene left many pondering the reasons behind such distinct presentations within the closely knit clan.
However, later in the event, Aishwarya and Abhishek Bachchan were spotted together, dispelling earlier observations. Aishwarya was seen seated alongside her husband. Aaradhya was also spotted sitting comfortably with both her parents.
In addition to the Bachchans, the wedding boasted a galaxy of Bollywood luminaries, including Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan, Ajay Devgn, Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, Tiger Shroff, and Varun Dhawan, each arriving with their respective families. The cricket world was equally present, with icons like Sachin Tendulkar and MS Dhoni alongside Jasprit Bumrah, Hardik Pandya, and Suryakumar Yadav.
Global celebrities and business tycoons added to the grandeur, making it an event that captured international attention. The presence of personalities ranging from Kim Kardashian to former UK Prime Minister Tony Blair highlighted the event's global significance.
