MUMBAI: A wedding reception on Sunday (July 14) wrapped up the months-long celebrations as the youngest son of Mukesh Ambani, Asia’s richest man, married his longtime girlfriend with a price tag running into the millions.

The newlyweds were cheered by friends and relatives at Mumbai’s Jio World Drive -- a convention center built and owned by the Ambani family - as part of the "Mangal Utsav” (a festival of Bliss), which marked what many have dubbed as the wedding of the year.
