Here¡¯s why Jamnagar is special for the Ambanis

1. The first reason why this place is so important for the Ambani family is because Anant Ambani¡¯s grandmother, Kokilaben Ambani, was born there.

2. Secondly, Anant¡¯s grandfather and businessman Dhirubhai Ambani and father Mukesh Ambani started their business in Jamnagar.

3. Jamnagar also played an important part in bringing Anant and Radhika closer. The two spent their childhood there and spent a lot of time there during the COVID-19 pandemic.

In her speech during the first pre-wedding celebrations, Radhika Merchant had said, "For Anant and me, Jamnagar is where our heart is. This is where we grew up, where we became friends, where we fell in love and where we built our relationship. Now as we begin our future together, we will be doing it here and we are so thankful that you get to see the beginning of it."

Talking about how they were in Jamnagar during the pandemic, she said, "In March of 2020, Anant and I got locked down here and couldn¡¯t go back to see our family for months. Although it was hard to stay away, we learned to appreciate the small joys of life. It offers more than just romantic moments. It¡¯s a crucial phase for building a foundation based on mutual understanding and shared experiences. Studies have shown that couples who invest in quality time pre-marriage report higher levels of relationship satisfaction and are less prone to divorce. This is attributed to the opportunity to delve deeper into each other¡¯s values, communication styles, and conflict resolution approaches."
