Podcaster Ranveer Allahbadia shares his experience at the Ambani wedding
On his podcast, Ranveer Allahbadia—who attended the three days of festivities—shared his experience at the wedding with comic Akaash Singh. They disclosed that the "baraat," which included a number of well-known celebrities, walked along a vast pathway with various pitstops along the route.
“They had a long road built out, and stations along that road. And on each of the stations was one music superstar,” Allahbadia said.
“I’ll never get over the stations. At a normal wedding, you just walk with the whole crew and go forward. But here, the crew was stopping at every station, having a mini concert, the artist was vibing, and everyone in the baraat was also going crazy,” he added.

Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant's wedding venue looked like Bhansali's set
Akaash Singh described the venue and said, “They took a convention centre, and built a city inside that convention centre. Every part of this city looked like a Sanjay Leela Bhansali set. It looked like old, beautiful India that you see in the movies. There are four different floors, and every floor serves a unique purpose that is beyond just a wedding.”
Allahbadia added, “On day two of the wedding, they released a 10-minute movie, within the wedding, for the wedding guests. It was directed by Atlee, and the voiceover was done by Amitabh Bachchan. It was a micro-movie for the wedding.”
They also talked about how friendly the big Bollywood actors like Salman Khan, Varun Dhawan, Sonakshi Sinha, and Karan Johar were at the wedding, and how the Ambani family was greeting every visitor one-on-one.
Newlyweds Anant and Radhika visited Gujarat's Jamnagar for the first time after getting married and got a warm welcome. A huge crowd gathered in the streets to celebrate the couple, showering them with flower petals.
