Adani and Ambani; well these two names often echo on social media as well as the world media. Both Mukesh Ambani and Gautam Ambani are among the richest men in the world and among the major driving forces in India. While Mukesh Ambani is the Chairman and Managing Director, of Reliance Industries Limited, Gautam Adani is the chairman of Adani Group. This year, Gautam Adani's son Jeet Adani got married to Diva Shah in a simple and private ceremony. On the other hand, Mukesh Ambani's son Anant Ambani grabbed the world's attention due to its luxurious nature and too much spending.
Adani Wedding and Ambani Wedding both presented a contrasting image around the world. Below is how Jeet Adani's wedding was different from Anant Ambani's-
Gautam Adani's donations that he made after Jeet Adani's wedding
Let's talk about Jeet Adani's wedding first. Jeet Adani got married to Diva Shah. Jeet Adani got married to Diva Jaimin Shah, daughter of diamond merchant Jaimin Shah, at a "small and extremely private function" in Ahmedabad on February 7, 2025. Before Jeet Adani's wedding, reports surfaced that his marriage would be grander than Anant Ambani's. Many Hollywood stars including Taylor Swift will perfect at his wedding. However, Gautam Adani during his visit to Mahakumbh 2025 along with his family, denied such reports and clearly said that Jeet's wedding would be according to tradition and not a star-studded affair.
To mark the wedding of his younger son Jeet, billionaire Gautam Adani donated Rs 10,000 crore to various social causes, including building infrastructure in healthcare, education, and skill development. As per reports, Gautam Adani's donated money will go into the creation of a network of affordable world-class hospitals and medical colleges, affordable top-tier K-12 schools and advanced global skill academics with assured employability.
Talking about health infrastructure, among the most impactful projects funded by the donation is the creation of Adani Health City (AHC) campuses. In partnership with Mayo Clinic, the world’s largest integrated non-profit medical group, Adani aims to build two 1,000-bed multi-super-specialty hospitals and medical colleges in Mumbai and Ahmedabad. These state-of-the-art medical campuses will serve people from all socio-economic backgrounds, making world-class healthcare accessible to all.
Anant Ambani wedding
Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant got married on July 12 at the Jio World Convention Center. It is reported that Anant gifted his 25 groomsmen watches worth Rs 2 crore each. Infact, Mika Singh during an interview took a dig at this saying that Anant Ambani did not give him the watch. Before, their wedding, three-day pre-wedding celebrations were organised in Jamnagar. It was attended by the who's who of India and the world including Gautam Adani. Pop-star Rihanna also performed at the pre-wedding celebrations.
Not only this, but the Ambanis then organised a pre-wedding celebration on a Cruise in South France. Hollywood stars like Backstreet Boys, Katy Perry, Pitbull, etc also performed there.
For the wellfare of society, the Ambanis organised mass wedding for 50 underprivileged couples. The ceremony took place at the Reliance Corporate Park in Navi Mumbai and saw the presence of nearly 800 attendees, including family members of the couples, local social workers, and community representatives. Mukesh Ambani and Nita Ambani were accompanied by their family members: son Akash Ambani with wife Shloka Mehta, and daughter Isha Ambani with husband Anand Piramal.
