Here’s Everything About Anant Ambani’s Bride, Radhika Merchant
The gorgeous bride taking over the headlines, Radhika Merchant, is the daughter of Encore Healthcare CEO Viren Merchant. Anant Ambani and her Roka ceremony were recently held on Thursday at Shrinathji Temple in Nathdwara, Rajasthan.
It has been several years since Anant, 27, got engaged to Radhika, 28. Radhika has been seen at numerous Ambani family events previously. She attended both Isha Ambani’s wedding to Anand Piramal and Akash Ambani’s wedding to Shloka Mehta.
So, who is Radhika Merchant? She is Viren Merchant’s elder daughter. She is from Kutch, Gujarat, but has been living in Mumbai for several years. She graduated from Mumbai’s famous Cathedral and John Connon School, along with École Mondiale World School, which is situated in Juhu. She also has an International Baccalaureate Diploma from BD Somani International School.
After completing her basic education in India, Radhika set out for New York to pursue her further education. She is an alumna of New York University, where she earned a bachelor’s degree in politics and economics. She then went on to work with luxury home developers, the Isprava Group, which is headed by Nadir Godrej, Anand Piramal, and Dabur’s Burman family.

At the moment, Radhika is not only Anant Ambani’s bride but also one of the directors on the board of Encore Healthcare. Besides being invested in the business, Radhika also shares a keen love for animals and actively participates in animal welfare programs.
Her interests go beyond just business and animals. You would be surprised to know that she is a trained Bharatnatyam dancer and has learned the art form from Guru Bhavana Thakar at Shree Nibha Arts.
On the occasion of Anant and Radhika’s recent Roka ceremony, Reliance issued a statement that read, “Anant and Radhika have known each other for a few years, and today’s ceremony commences the formal journey of their marriage in the coming months. Both families seek the blessings and good wishes of everyone for Radhika and Anant as they start their journey of togetherness.”
