Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant had one of the dreamiest and, not to mention, the most extravagant weddings of all time. The lovebirds have created hundreds of ‘aww’ moments throughout the years that they have been together. After almost a month of pre-wedding festivities, the couple finally tied the knot, sealing their fate forever. But let us tell you about the time that the Ambani heir was determined not to get married.
Recently, an old video of Anant Ambani went viral where he recalled his lack of interest in marriage before meeting the love of his life, Radhika Merchant. When the interviewer asked Anant who he considered more lucky to have found each other, he was quick to respond that he was surely the lucky one in this relationship. He was heard saying:
“Maine bachpan mein socha tha ki main kabhi shaadi nahin karunga. Main mummy papa ko humesha bolta tha… Main humesha janwaron ki seva mein laga rehta tha. Jab main inko mila, to inki bhi meri jaisi soch hai, seva ka bhav hai, janwaron se bohot zyada prem hai… Iske alawa, jitni bhi mere saath kathinaai huyi, mere swasth ko lekar wo humesha ek mazbut taqat jaisa khadi rahi hai.”

Anant Ambani used to be quite anxious about his health and well-being. He never thought he would get married, but everything changed when he met Radhika Merchant. They share similar values, including a love for animals and a desire to help others. Radhika has been a strong pillar of support to Anant, especially during his health struggles. They are now inseparable and best friends.
Radhika Merchant and Anant Ambani had known each other for several years before their engagement in 2022. The couple was seen together in multiple instances, and Radhika was a common face in every Ambani celebration, big or small. Anant and Radhika’s first picture had surfaced online back in 2018.
After battling serious health complications, Anant finally got engaged to his lady love in a traditional roka ceremony at the Shrinathji Temple in Rajasthan. Both of their families had announced the engagement to the public through a joint statement that said:
“Anant and Radhika have known each other for a few years and today’s ceremony commences the formal journey of their marriage in the coming months. Both families seek the blessings and good wishes of everyone for Radhika and Anant as they start their journey of togetherness.”
The duo finally tied the knot on July 12, 2024, giving the nation the grandest wedding it had ever seen. If sources are to be believed, Anant Ambani’s wedding cost, together with the pre-wedding celebrations was estimated to be a whopping 5000 crores!
