While legendary singer Lata Mangeshkar could not become a part of Mukesh and Nita Ambani’s daughter Isha Ambani’s wedding ceremonies, she made sure to sent her warm wishes and blessings for the newly wed couple in the most beautiful way. The 86 year old singer sent in a special voice recording where she is heard singing the Gayatri Mantra and Ganesh Stuti for the wedding of Isha Ambani and Anand Piramal.
Lata Mangeshkar reveals that the Amabni’s are like a part of her own family and the least she could do was to send her blessing through her voice. The singer’s message was broadcast at Isha and Anand’s wedding, and she also wished them all the best for their married life.
“It was the best I could do considering I wasn’t well enough to attend the wedding. My best wishes are always with Isha (Mukesh and Nita Ambani’s daughter) and her husband Anand. May they make their parents proud,” the singer said in a statement.
Elaborating on her relationship with the Ambanis, Lata Mangeshkar said: “For me, Mukesh and Nita are like a part of my family. I don’t look at them as a separate family. Both of them have always been very fond of me, as I am of them. I would have loved to attend their daughter’s wedding. Sadly, I wasn’t up to it. But I hope to meet Isha and Anand soon and offer them my blessing.”
Lata Mangeshkar also revealed that she has heard a lot about the wedding. “It is being said it was the best wedding in Mumbai in many years. Mukeshji and Nita Bhabhi personally looked into every aspect of the arrangement making sure every guest was looked after. I believe the American musician performer Beyonce performed at the pre-wedding celebration. Yeh koi choti baat nahin hai (It’s not a minor thing). I don’t think anyone but Mukesh and Nita Ambani could manage this.”
Isha Ambani and Anand Piramal tied the knot on December 14 in a fairytale wedding that witnessed the presence of the who's who from the worlds of politics, entertainment and business among others. The festivities also saw former US First Lady Hillary Clinton, former President of India Pranab Mukherjee, Bollywood superstar Amitabh Bachchan in attendance along with other A-listers.
