In a now-deleted post on Instagram, Manish shared that he is the one who has helped design the spaces for the pre-wedding celebrations of Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant. Manish shared, “When I first met Nita Ambani to discuss the creative concepts for Anant and Radhika’s pre-wedding ceremony, she advised, “Manish, you must first immerse yourself in the essence of Jamnagar. Please visit the place once.” Taking her advice to heart, I paid a visit to Jamnagar, and what I experienced there left me awestruck.”
He added, “Whether it is the refinery complex, the lush green mango orchards, the picturesque township, the wildlife rescue and rehabilitation facility – each and every aspect of Jamnagar was a testament to the grand vision and impeccable execution that Nita and Mukesh Ambani are renowned for. The magnificence of the city surpassed my wildest dreams, deeply touching my soul.”
In the caption, he also mentioned, “The task of designing spaces for the pre-wedding celebrations was a formidable one. Each venue demanded a blend of immense creativity and collaboration, challenging us to push the boundaries of imagination. Working alongside Mrs Ambani, however, transformed this daunting task into a journey of joy and discovery. For instance, my team and I envisioned the “Valley of Gods” concept for the temple complex. Mrs Ambani wanted it to mirror the Vedic era. Consequently, we developed mood boards to present to her. She motivated us to think bigger, expand our vision, and create something extraordinary. The outcome is for all of us to see.”
“Presently, I am in Jamnagar, observing firsthand how those conversations have materialised into wonderful experiences, virtually altering the cityscape of Jamnagar. It’s been a deeply emotional and satisfying experience bringing Mrs Ambani’s vision to life through endless nights of laughter, serious dialogue, and heartfelt moments,” he further mentioned.
Famous Indian celebrities including Amitabh Bachchan, Shah Rukh Khan, Aamir Khan and Rajinikanth will be gracing the festivities with their respective families.
