Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerberg, Rihanna, Ivanka Trump and Disney boss Bob Iger are among the world’s super-rich and elite figures expected to attend the richest man’s youngest son’s extravagant pre-wedding party from Asia, Mukesh Ambani.

Anant Ambani, 28, will marry his childhood sweetheart Radhika Merchant, 29, in July this year, but the three-day festivities in Gujarat’s Jamnagar starting on March 1 are seen as setting the stage for larger wedding celebrations. Mrs Merchant comes from a family with business interests in the pharmaceutical sector.

Mukesh Ambani is Asia’s richest man and a renowned oil and telecom tycoon, who competes closely with billionaire Gautam Adani, chairman of the Adani group of companies, according to the real-time list of billionaires around the world compiled by Forbes as of January 30, 2024.

Expected to be one of the world’s grandest weddings of the year, the Ambani family has marked the three-day event for guests to enjoy a lavish gala with over 2,500 dishes cooked by a team of 65 chefs.

The Ambani family, with a net worth of £85bn, runs India’s leading conglomerates across all sectors: oil refining and marketing, organized retail, telecoms giant Jio and other digital streaming services.

Top Indian celebrities like Shah Rukh Khan, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Amitabh Bachchan, Rajinikanth, Salman Khan, Deepika Padukone, Ranbir Kapoor, Ranveer Singh, Sachin Tendulkar and Alia Bhatt are expected to attend.

According to a listing of events, the celebrations will begin with a dazzling cocktail party called “an evening in Everland,” followed by a jungle-themed celebration on Saturday where guests have been asked to wear comfortable shoes for a safari ride.

The groom’s love of nature is supposed to have inspired the wildlife theme at the pre-wedding celebration. The invitation reads: “Anant has lovingly turned this complex into a haven of care and compassion for thousands of rescued animals.”

The two got engaged in a traditional ceremony in January last year at the grand Ambani Antilia residence in Mumbai.
