Anant Ambani's older sister Isha Ambani Piramal announced the surprise. "It seems we have a missing ring, but I think we have a surprise ringbearer. Can we please have our ringbearer come up," said Isha as her brother and Radhika Merchant waited on stage.
The camera captured a staffer bringing the family's beloved dog. With the ring tied around its neck with a bright red ribbon, the dog dashed to the platform, where Anant, assisted by brother Akash Ambani, removed the ring.
Anant and Radhika married in a traditional Gujarati wedding that included classic Gujarati rites. Gol Dhana is a tradition in which the bride's family delivers jaggery and coriander seeds to the groom's family. The bride's family then arrives to the groom's house with presents and sweets, and the pair subsequently exchanges rings.
Yesterday night's Antilia event was attended by Bollywood heavyweights such as Shah Rukh Khan, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Salman Khan, Ranveer Singh, Deepika Padukone, and others.
