MUMBAI, July 2: In a series of grand pre-wedding celebrations marking the union of Anant Bhai Ambani and Radhika Merchant, one event stands out for its noble cause and heartfelt execution: the mass wedding for underprivileged couples.
Following spectacular celebrations in Jamnagar, Gujarat, and an opulent international cruise in Italy, the Ambani family has once again captured national attention with this philanthropic endeavour.
Initially planned to be held at Swami Vivekanand Vidyamandir in Palghar, the mass wedding ceremony was relocated and took place today at the Reliance Corporate Park in Thane.
The event highlighted the Ambani family’s dedication to providing an unforgettable experience for the happy couples by enabling them to celebrate their union in grandeur, a luxury that would have been beyond their means.
The mass wedding marked the beginning of the wedding festivities for Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant. It brought together over 50 underprivileged couples from the Palghar area, located about 100 kilometers from Mumbai.
The ceremony was attended by nearly 800 people, including family members of the couples, local social workers, and community members. This initiative is a testament to the Ambani family’s commitment to philanthropy and their belief in uplifting the underprivileged.
The Ambani family has always upheld the timeless Indic dictum, “Manav seva hi Madhav seva” ? “Service to humanity is service to God.” They have a tradition of beginning every major family occasion by providing for and serving others, reinforcing their commitment to the community.
Nita Ambani and Mukesh Ambani, accompanied by their family members, attended the function and extended their heartfelt wishes to the couples, adding a personal touch to the auspicious occasion.
In a gesture of goodwill, each couple was presented with gold ornaments, including Mangalsutra, wedding rings, and nose rings. They also received silver ornaments such as toe rings and anklets.
Additionally, each bride was given a cheque of Rs. 1.01 Lakh (One Lakh One Thousand) as her ‘streedhan.’ The couples were also gifted with grocery and household items sufficient for one year, including a variety of 36 essential items and utensils, appliances such as a gas stove, mixer, and fan, as well as a mattress and pillows.
The wedding ceremony included a grand dinner for all attendees, furthering the spirit of celebration and togetherness. The attendees were also invited to witness the traditional Tarpa Dance performed by the Warli Tribe, adding a rich cultural experience to the evening.
This initiative was yet another example of how Anant Bhai Ambani gave back to the nation in celebration of his own love.
Starting with this function, the Ambani family pledged to continue supporting hundreds more of such weddings across the country during the upcoming wedding seasons.
The mass wedding organised by Anant Bhai Ambani and the Ambani family was more than just a pre-wedding celebration; it was a beacon of love and support for India’s underprivileged by bringing joy to over 50 couples and their families.
As they continue to weave the threads of love and compassion into the fabric of their celebrations, they remind us all that true grandeur lies in the hearts that give.(UNI)
