The event has sparked widespread discussions.
The wedding is being touted as the most expensive marriage.
Mukesh Ambani’s son, Anant Ambani, recently wrapped up his long-awaited marriage to Radhika Merchant after months of extravagant pre-wedding celebrations. The event has sparked widespread discussions among people and the media about its exorbitant cost.
According to reports from the Financial Times and various Indian media outlets, Anant Ambani’s wedding is being touted as the most expensive marriage ever held globally. The estimated total expenditure reportedly reached around Rs 5,000 crore, which includes substantial payments made to international stars like Justin Bieber, who received Rs 83 crore, and Rihanna, who earned Rs 74 crore for their appearances.
This figure surpasses the costs of famous weddings such as Princess Diana and Prince Charles’s, which totaled Rs 1,361 crore, and Sheikha Hind Bint bin Maktoum and Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum’s, which amounted to Rs 1,144 crore, making it one of the most lavish weddings worldwide.
The Daily Mail also reported that a staggering Rs 2,500 crore was allocated specifically for the pre-wedding events, covering expenses like the luxurious Celebrity Ascent cruise liner, private jets, and extensive security measures.
Forbes estimates the overall cost of the entire wedding extravaganza to be between Rs 4,000 crore and Rs 5,000 crore ($0.6 billion), a fraction of the Ambani family’s immense net worth.
Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant’s wedding celebrations kicked off with pre-wedding rituals in March in Gujarat’s Jamnagar, culminating in grand festivities in Mumbai, Maharashtra, recently.

Pakistani celebrities speak out against the costs of electricity.
Humaira Channa spoke candidly about her distress.
Nooran Lal expressed frustration over the exorbitant bills.
Recently, there was a stir in Pakistan when veteran actor Rashid Mehmood shared his steep electricity bill for June 2024, sparking widespread sympathy on social media. Many users echoed his sentiments, attributing their own financial struggles to the country’s inflationary pressures, which have made managing household expenses increasingly challenging. This has prompted several other Pakistani celebrities to also speak out against the escalating costs of electricity and the burden of high utility bills.
Humaira Channa, renowned for her popular songs in Lollywood, spoke candidly about her distress over the soaring electricity charges. She remarked, “Inflation is affecting us deeply. As responsible citizens and representatives of Pakistan, we are grappling with hefty bills. I urge the authorities to ease our burden. My bill amounted to 60,000 PKR. We only use one AC at night; during the day, it remains off. Managing everything independently, especially with university-bound children, is tough without any additional support.”
Nooran Lal, another prominent singer, expressed frustration over the exorbitant bills and taxes, saying, “I’m Nooran Lal, addressing the current situation. Despite employing two meters to monitor our usage, we received bills totaling 40,000 and 33,000 PKR, accompanied by heavy taxes. As artists relying solely on our craft, it’s a constant struggle. As a single woman managing a household, the financial strain is overwhelming. We’ve always contributed through PTV shows without asking for much, yet now we face these financial challenges. Is this fair?” She made a direct plea to the government for relief.
Mishi Khan, a former actor and host, raised concerns about inflation and the anticipated rise in electricity costs following recent government price hikes per unit.
Maria Mir, a singer, highlighted the difficulty of meeting her escalating electricity bills. There were reports circulating about Zahid Sharif, a former Pakistani Olympic player, contemplating extreme measures like selling a kidney to settle his electricity bill.
