Well, is it possible to think about money when it comes to love and the wedding of our children? Of course not, because this joyful event should be remembered for a lifetime. And some weddings are awaited not by families, but by the whole country! This is how a rehearsal for the wedding of the young and happy Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant took place in India, where world celebrities and 50 thousand guests attended... And this is taking into account the fact that we are only talking about a “warm-up” before the main celebration. A logical question arises: “Who are these people anyway and why are they so rich?”
Radhika Merchant and Anant Ambani 
A plump and smiling young man, as you understand, this is 28-year-old Anant Ambani - the son of the indecently successful tycoon Mukesh Ambani, who today ranks 13th among the richest people in the world according to Forbes magazine. His capital is estimated at $88.6 billion. He earned his fabulous wealth in three areas: petrochemicals, telecommunications and retail. And now the family will be... even richer, because he chose an extremely profitable match for his youngest heir - Radika Merchant.
The girl is the daughter of pharmaceutical industrialist Viren Merchant, who is one of the richest people in India. His fortune compared to the wealth of the groom's family... is quite modest. He's not even a billionaire! Merchant's capital is estimated at $92 million. Yes, it’s not a lot, but it’s a decent family.
So, two days before the start of the party, the newlyweds hosted a dinner for 50 thousand residents of the village, which was located not far from the event site. 1,200 guests were invited to the party itself, among whom were celebrities such as Mark Zuckerberg, Bill Gates, Ivanka Trump, as well as singer Rihanna, who, by the way, also gave a concert! At the upcoming wedding, the dinner for guests will consist of 500 dishes, none of which will be repeated. Indian media write that the wedding itself, which will take place in July this year, will cost approximately $113 million. Yes, the amount is quite average. But times are difficult now.
