The Ambani family gathered in Gir, Saurashtra, for the Pran Pratishtha of a newly built Shiv Mandir, marking the occasion with traditional rituals and a strong display of devotion. Mukesh and Nita Ambani attended with their children; Akash, Anant, and Isha, their spouses, and grandchildren.
The ceremony also drew prominent guests from Bollywood and cricket, including Aamir Khan with Gauri Spratt, Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh, as well as legends Sachin Tendulkar and Mahendra Singh Dhoni.
Images and videos from the ceremony showed guests chanting Shiva mantras and taking part in various rituals. Ranveer Singh was seen raising his hands enthusiastically during the chants, while Deepika Padukone wore a red saree for the occasion.
The event featured sacred offerings and a communal havan led by Mukesh Ambani, with Nita Ambani and the family participating in the aarti and other Pran Pratishtha rituals. Guests also witnessed the Bhasma Aarti, a distinctive part of Shiva worship.
Soon after the ceremony, the Ambani family hosted US President Donald Trump’s son, Donald Trump Jr, in Jamnagar.

Videos on social media showed Trump Jr. arriving in Jamnagar with his girlfriend, where they received a grand welcome. According to reports, the couple landed around 7:30 pm and travelled to Reliance Greens under tight security. Trump Jr. also offered prayers at the Ganpati Temple with Anant and Radhika Ambani before taking part in the traditional Garba-Dandiya festivities.
