It was a big day for Reliance Industries (RIL) chairman Mukesh Ambani and his wife Neeta Ambani as their youngest son Anant Ambani got engaged to Radhika Merchant.

The engagement ceremony of Anant and Radhika was held in a traditional way at the famous Shrinathji Temple in Rajasthan’s Nathdwara. The temple holds great significance for the Ambani family.
