About
Ambani Weddings refers to discussions and memes about lavish Indian wedding celebrations thrown by the Ambani family. Patriarch Mukesh Ambani, the owner of Reliance Industries, is one of the wealthiest Asian businessmen as of 2023. Memes about Ambani wedding guestlists, Mukesh Ambani's political influence and his families affiliation with Bollywood were popular in 2018, partly fueled by video footage of American pop star Beyoncé performing and American politicians Hillary Clinton and John Keery dancing at Isha Ambani's wedding went viral in 2018. The memes made a resurgence after photos and videos from Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant's engagement circulated in January 2023.
