Images of some of the world’s most renowned people celebrating at a pre-wedding gala hosted by Asia’s richest man are awash on social media.
The three-day event was hosted by Mukesh Ambani in honor of his son Anant, who is getting married to his fiance Radhika Merchant in July.
Among the 1,200 visitors who participated in three days of song and dance at Mr. Ambani’s resort in Gujarat state were Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg.
The highlight was the debut performance of musical star Rihanna in India.
According to reports, Rihanna was compensated for her performance in the neighborhood of $7 million (£5.5 million).
On stage, several of India’s most renowned actors also performed their hit melodies.
International status was bestowed temporarily upon the Jamnagar airport in recognition of the large number of visitors it received from both within the country and around the globe. According to airport authorities, close to 130 aircraft had arrived in preparation for the occasion.
Reportedly, the majority of attendees lodged in high-end tents near the establishment and were able to select from a menu of more than 500 dishes crafted by dozens of chefs from around the globe.
Additionally, hair and makeup artists, housekeeping services, and stylists who assisted them in donning Indian attire were made available to them.
Additionally, attendees were granted access to Anant Ambani’s pet project, a 3,000-acre facility housing tens of thousands of animals.
