Wedding of Anant Ambani, the son of Asia's richest man, caught attention for a variety of reasons, but the one that Pakistanis could most easily connect to is the fact that some Indian mega stars on this occasion wore clothing designed by Pakistani designers.
The months-long wedding, which was attended by leading Bollywood and Hollywood stars, businessmen, sports personalities, and other notable figures, is now over.
Keeping in mind that the occasion was being extensively covered by the global media, the celebrities donned their best set of clothing. Even if no notable Pakistani celebrity could attend the opulent wedding events, but Pakistani designers' clothes did reach there.
The prominent Pakistani designers, whose outfits were worn by celebrities in the marriage events of Indian billionaire's son, are Iqbal Hussain, Faraz Manan, and Mohsin Naveed Ranjha.
Saif Ali Khan's daughter Sara Ali Khan, 'Gully Boy' actress Alia Bhatt, Canadian singer AP Dhillon and Indian cricketer Hardik Pandya flaunted these designers’ dresses.
Bhatt sported a black dress designed by Faraz Manan for the Sangeet ceremony. People on social media loved the outfit.
Bollywood actress Sara attended the 'Shubh Vivah' ceremony, wearing an olive-green dress by designer Iqbal Hussain. She looked stunning in the same designer’s long frock and golden lehenga for the 'Shubh Aashirwad' event. Her twitter account even got overwhelmed with criticism for not giving credit to the Pakistani designer for the amazing clothes.
Pandya chose a light pink dress of designer Faraz Manan. While, Dhillon also wore a dress designed by Manan.
The glamorous wedding celebrations resumed Saturday as Ambani's youngest son Anant, and his wife Radhika Merchant, both 29, tied the knot in Mumbai following months of pre-marriage parties that have set a new benchmark in matrimonial extravagance.
Saturday's itinerary included a blessing ceremony during which the world's rich and famous greeted the couple at the wedding venue, a 16,000-capacity convention centre owned by the Ambani family's conglomerate.
This weekend's celebrations ended Sunday with a reception party.
Previous events this year included a party at the Ambanis' ancestral home where a purpose-built Hindu temple was unveiled, and private performances were held by R&B star Rihanna and Canada's Justin Bieber.
Guests at that gala included Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg and former US president Donald Trump's daughter Ivanka.
In June, the couple embarked on a four-day Mediterranean cruise along with 1,200 guests, with singer Katy Perry performing at a masquerade ball at a French chateau in Cannes.
