The Ambanis are the new 'Crazy Rich Asians' and Twitter is shook

"So many celebs at the Ambani wedding, wouldn't be surprised if Queen Elizabeth dances on London Thumakda next."

11 Dec, 2018

It's been a year of lavish weddings. What kicked off with Virushka back in 2017 had a bit of a domino effect; Sonam Ki Shaadi, DeepVeer followed and by the time NickYanka rolled around, we thought we'd be getting a breather from the big, fat, insanely grand desi wedding.

Boy, were we wrong. India's richest family didn't come to play.

Mukesh Ambani left no stone unturned for his daughter, Isha's pre-wedding festivities with Anand Piramal; Bollywood celebs were flown into Udaipur to put on a show (some as — wait for this — backup dancers) with the bride and groom and if that wasn't enough, attendees also included Hillary Clinton, Nick Jonas and y'know, Beyoncé Knowles, who was also there to perform.

Our mind is frankly blown at how OTT everything about this is and Twitter is also having a hard time processing ALL. THIS. WEALTH.

Getting some Ganesh Gaitonde vibes here...

It's truly mind-boggling what money can do

Mumbai Airport broke its record and handled a record 1,004 flights in a single day as guests were flown in from all over the world

If it were us though...

Indians have deep pockets. According to PWC, by 2050 Indian economy will be worth 44 trillion Dollars , second to China. By then Mukesh Ambani's son will get the entire Hollywood for his daughter's wedding.

Mukesh Ambani bought an aeroplane for his wife on her 45th birthday.

Before Britishers India was biggest economy in the world so it is slowly reclaiming its status.

He has created opportunities for millions..nothing wrong if he can spend his own money..

Lavish weddings are not unheard in this land. Everyone spends according to their wealth. We're talking about Ambani's here, he also has right to do what we do according to our capacity. We shouldn't be jealous of him because his capacity is many many many many many........ times more than normal rich people. Rather we should cherish Achievement of this family. They achieved this only in two generations (rather in single generation only as Dhirubhai Ambani made it to top from modest back ground)

Ofcourse he is rich, after Rafael deal, courtesy Mr Modi.

hans Dec 11, 2018 07:27pm

@Zak get your facts right .Anil Ambani's name has been highlighted for the Rafael deal and not Mukesh Ambani's.Both are separate entities .

Its sad how one family has been allegedly looting India for generations and now spends it shamelessly on such extravaganza.

Indians know how to celebrate.

Pervez Dec 12, 2018 06:14pm

@Zak what’s your point?

Archie Dec 12, 2018 08:22pm

Mukesh Ambani can even reduce Malik Riaz to a background dancer.

Nair Dec 13, 2018 08:47am

@Zak Dear Zak there is a whole wide huge India beyond Modi. This is a land of 1200 languages, 8 religions, 5000 castes, umpteen races. 50% of Indians dont even know who their CM or PM is. India is more than a country. It is a civilization.

He is a successful industrialist, who provided job and industry to his countrymen.
