With Anant Ambani being in the headlines for the last few days due to his extravagant wedding, it seems like the perfect time to do a watch-spotting article on the youngest son of India’s biggest business tycoon.
Last week, Anant Ambani married Radhika Merchant, his childhood sweetheart, to become one half of a very influential power couple. Anant Ambani is the youngest son of one of Asia’s richest men, Mukesh Ambani, and he is a partial heir to the $118 billion fortune. His wife, Radhika, is also the daughter of extremely wealthy pharmaceutical tycoons!
Born on April 10, 1995, in Mumbai, Anant Ambani has two other siblings, Akash and Isha. He is seen as one of the heirs to Mukesh Ambani’s Reliance Industries Empire. Anant gained widespread media attention in 2016 due to his incredible transformation, in which he lost around 108 kilograms in less than 18 months through a very disciplined fitness program.
Despite being incredibly wealthy, Anant Ambani’s journey to better his health has inspired many around him and has people admiring him outside of his family’s successful business empire. Another reason why he’s loved in India is that he is also known for his involvement in various philanthropic activities, which are conducted through the Reliance Foundation, headed by his mother, Nita Ambani. The foundation focuses on initiatives such as healthcare, education, rural development, and sports, with its sole aim being to make a positive impact on the lives of millions across India.
More recently, as many of you would have seen across social media, he married the love of his life in one of the most international glamour weddings to date. The wedding festivities spanned across several months, with events happening in Gujarat, Mumbai and even a cruise across Europe! The couple were officially wed on July 12th, with a grand reception on July 14th.

The wedding itself was certainly a lavish event, with celebrities worldwide coming to celebrate the special occasion. Celebrities such as former British Prime Ministers Borish Johnson and Tony Blair, John Cena, Nick Jonas, Priyanka Chopra, Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan, and Kim and Khloe Kardashian, to name a few.
Much like the wedding, there were also some incredibly lavish timepieces on show.

The timepiece is artfully created to showcase the galaxy, a source of inspiration for the singer and rapper.

The timepiece took cues from the mechanical architecture of the RM 27-01 Rafael Nadal, and its cable-suspended movement is at the pinnacle of transparency. The timepiece is manual wound and is limited to just 10 pieces.
