4. The decoration was top-notch like a Sanjay Leela Bhansali set
Akaash Singh then revealed that the decoration inside looked larger than life - like a SLB set. "Every part of this city looked like a Sanjay Leela Bhansali set. It looked like old, beautiful India that you see in the movies. There are four different floors, and every floor serves a unique purpose that is beyond just a wedding".
5. Guests were shown a personalised ten-minute movie
The Ambanis made a personalised movie that was shown to the guests. The film was directed by Jawan director Atlee, which had a voiceover by Amitabh Bachchan. "On day two of the wedding, they released a 10-minute movie, within the wedding, for the wedding guests. It was directed by Atlee, and the voiceover was done by Amitabh Bachchan. It was a micro-movie for the wedding".
6. The Ambani family gave away designer merchandise for free
¡°We were in a magical world,¡± recalled Akaash Singh as he revealed that merchandise including bangles and designer sunglasses were being given free at the wedding. "Shops were giving away bangles. I heard they were giving away designer sunglasses, like Versace sunglasses. Not all of them charged. Some of them just gave you stuff. It was crazy."
7. 2500 dishes
There were 2500 dishes served at the wedding. All of these dishes were pure vegetarian and from all over India and global flavours. An entire floor was dedicated to food. "It was on the floor above the wedding area. There was a floor full of food and places to eat. You enter and you see a long line, probably 300 metres, of just dessert counters. There was a pan shop, and it was run by an actual Benarasi pan shop owner. It¡¯s like they got entire restaurants and placed them within the wedding," Ranveer revealed.
