When the Ambanis celebrate, it has to be in grand Bollywood style.

And so, to showcase their family at Radhika Merchant-Anant Ambani’s sangeet ceremony, they chose to dance to the song, Deewangi Deewangi, from Om Shanti Om.

Anant was by her side in a silver jacket worn over an embroidered royal blue kurta.

This is how her sister, Diya Mehta Jatia, describes Shloka’s choice: ‘While conceptualising the sangeet look we wanted to go for something fun, elegant and “iconic”. After multiple rounds of discussions, we thought of dipping into the archives and recreated the OG @manishmalhotra05 ‘bole chudiyan’ look. It was an absolute blast!!!’

Pink, clearly, was the theme of the evening.

Nita Ambani’s happiness shone brighter that her diamonds, which she wore on her hair, her ears, as a necklace and jingling on her arms.
