Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant's sangeet ceremony on July 5 turned out to be an unforgettable event as the entire Ambani family lit up the stage on fire with their performance to "Deewangi Deewangi" from Shah Rukh Khan's film Om Shanti Om. The sangeet ceremony was held at Jio World Centre in Mumbai.

Not just this, the event also witnessed international pop sensation Justin Bieber who is known for chartbusters such as "Baby", "Sorry", "Love Yourself", and "Boyfriend", who flew in from Los Angeles to perform at the ceremony. If reports are to be believed, Bieber was likely paid $10 million to perform at the event. Reports also stated that other top international singers Adele, Drake, and Lana Del Rey are also set to perform.
The couple are set to tie know on July 12 after months-long pre-wedding festivities. The main ceremonies will commence on Friday with the auspicious Shubh Vivah, or wedding function and dress code is traditional Indian attire. The celebrations will continue on Saturday, July 13, with Shubh Aashirwad. The final event, Mangal Utsav or the wedding reception, is scheduled for Sunday, July 14.
