Bill Gates expresses gratitude to Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant for their “incredible” celebration

On Monday, after the three-day pre-wedding extravaganza hosted by Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant concluded, Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates congratulated the Ambanis for the “incredible celebration” at his first-ever event in India.

“This was my first time attending a wedding celebration in India, and it was incredible,” he stated in a Facebook post. Best wishes, Anant and Radhika. We appreciate you hosting us and providing us with a reason to visit with long-time friends.

Even when pictures of him wearing Indian clothing and posing with Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg went viral, he was seen taking part in the celebrations.

While the event got underway on March 1, Gates made waves on the internet by interacting with renowned tea seller Dolly Chaiwala—who is well-known for his social media presence—while savoring a perfectly prepared chai on Thursday.

Netizens were left stunned and laughing as this unexpected meeting sent ripples around the internet.

A straightforward chaiwala stole the show in a world where businesspeople and entrepreneurs compete for the opportunity to meet Gates and close big deals, leading to what many are referring to as “the most unexpected collab ever.”

Along with Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg, Anand Mahindra, chairman of Mahindra and Mahindra, Adar Poonawala of the Serum Institute of India and his wife Natasha, Gautam Adani of the Adani Group, KP Singh, Chairman of DLF, N Chandrasekaran, Chairman of Tata Sons, and Executive Chairman Lakshmi Mittal of ArcelorMittal, Gates was one of the business elites in attendance at the gala. The celebrations were attended by dignitaries from the political, cricket, and film industries, making it a star-studded affair.
