At the Shrinathji Temple in Nathdwara, Rajasthan, Radhika Merchant, the daughter of Viren Merchant and Shaila Merchant, and Anant Ambani, the son of Mukesh Ambani and Nita Ambani, became engaged. In front of family and friends, the “Roka” (engagement) ceremony was held and blessed by temple priests.
The young couple spent the day in the temple, where they performed the Raj-bhog-shringaar rituals and prayed to Lord Shrinathji for his blessing on their upcoming nuptials. The wonderful event will be jointly celebrated by family and friends later today. Parimal Nathwani, Director of Corporate Affairs for Reliance Industries Limited, acknowledged that Anant and Radhika’s Roka ceremony took place in the temple. For the event, Anant wore a blue traditional kurta and Radhika a peach lehenga.

He is now in charge of RIL’s energy business. Radhika Merchant graduated from New York University with a bachelor’s degree in politics and economics.
