After much speculation, Akash Ambani, the scion of India’s richest family and heir to the Reliance Group, is set to tie the knot with his high-school sweetheart Shloka Mehta, daughter of billionaire diamond magnate, Russell Mehta. Akash proposed to Mehta in a delightfully romantic outdoor setup in Goa surrounded by family and friends. For the intimate gathering, Mehta wore an embellished, tiered silver and grey gown by British label Needle & Thread, paired with minimal diamond jewellery. The couple celebrated their big moment with flowers and traditional Indian sweets, surrounded by loved ones.

After the surprisingly quiet and private engagement, the families of the couple were spotted paying their respects at Siddhivinayak Temple upon their return to Mumbai before making their public debut together in a lavish celebratory party at the ostentatious Ambani residence in South Mumbai, Antilia, which is estimated to be the world’s second-most expensive property after the Buckingham Palace. The starry event saw A-listers and elite industrialists joining the two families in a night long affair of opulent festivities.
Undoubtedly, the wedding is destined to be a multi-million-dollar grandiose extravaganza with families and planning-teams set to pull all stops to ensure the event complements the high-profile backgrounds of the newlyweds and their influential friends. There haven’t been any confirmed announcements on their wedding plans yet, but sources close the couple revealed that they are keen to tie the knot this year in December and wish to host a traditional wedding close to home in India.
Congratulations to the happy couple!
