Watch: Mukesh Ambani addresses guests as Anant and Radhika's pre-wedding gala begins

When I did Namaste to you, it meant that the Divine in me is pleased to acknowledge the Divine in you. Aap sab ne iss shaadi ke mahaul ko Mangalmay bana diya hai. Dhanyavaad! Bahut bahut dil se dhanyavaad!

Friends, Family. As Anant and Radhika embark on a journey of lifelong partnership, your blessings will yield a perennial harvest of good fortune whose abundance will never diminish. Today, my father Dhirubhai is also showering his profuse blessings from high up in the heavens.

I am sure he is doubly happy because we are celebrating this joyous day in the life of his favourite grandson, Anant, in Jamnagar.

Jamnagar became the karma bhoomi for my father and me… a place where we found our mission, passion, and purpose. Jamnagar was a totally barren land, it was a desert thirty years ago. What you see now is the realisation of Dhirubhai’s dream.

Jamnagar became the turning point in the history of Reliance. It continues to be a place where we launch futuristic businesses and unique philanthropic initiatives.

Our sole aim is to enhance India’s prosperity and contribute to the wellbeing of the Planet and all its People. In all humility, I say that Jamnagar will give you a glimpse of the Rise of a New India that is vibrant, optimistic, and full of self-confidence.

Friends, now let me say a few words about Anant & Radhika. Anant in Sanskrit means 'That which has no end’. It means Infinite. I see infinite potential in Anant! Main Anant mein Anant Shakti dekhata hoon.

Whenever I see Anant, I see my father Dhirubhai in him. His same can do, will do, nothing is impossible attitude. And in Radhika, he has found an ideal life partner. She is a reservoir of immense creative energy. She is a quiet fountain of love and care. Quite aptly, Radhika has the name of Lord Krishna’s favourite consort. Radhika and Anant. Anant and Radhika.

Yeh to “Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi" hai!

Our dear guests and friends, finally remember that three days of exciting and unforgettable festivities await all of you. Nita has conceptualized each one of them. She has singlehandedly put them all together by working tirelessly for several months. With her eye for detail; with her focus on aesthetics; and with her passion for perfection.

Even I don't know after four decades of being her life partner, where she gets this limitless energy from. I can only guess that she gets it from her devotion to Maa Amba and her infinite love for her children. Therefore, I ask all of you to sing, dance, and immerse yourself in each of these festivities.

Become young at heart again and I am going to try hard. Warmest welcome to Jamnagar. For us, each and everyone of you is a VIP and let the celebrations begin. Warm Welcome!"
