Mukesh Ambani, the chairman of Reliance Industries, decked up his Mumbai home, Antilia, with colorful decorations, lovely diyas, and the message “Jai Shri Ram” in honor of the “pran pratishtha,” or consecration ritual of the Ram temple in Ayodhya. On January 22, the consecration ceremony was held at the temple.

Social media users have posted a video of Ambani’s decorated home. With lit-up religious phrases, symbols, and holograms, the 27-story structure exudes a sense of grandeur.

The dedication of the Lord Ram Lalla statue in the sanctum Sanctorum of the magnificent temple in Ayodhya was overseen by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Anandiben Patel, the governor of Uttar Pradesh, Yogi Adityanath, the chief minister of the Rashtriya Janata Party, and Mohan Bhagwat were also present at the “Pran pratishtha” rites. The ceremonies were conducted by Varanasi-based priest Lakshmi Kant Dixit.

To demonstrate their commitment to the auspicious occasion, hundreds of VVIPs, including movie stars, cricket players, businesspeople, artists, pastors, and religious leaders, gathered on the temple grounds. Among the well-known attendees were Ambani, his spouse Nita Ambani, cricket player Virat Kohli, and stars Rajinikanth and Amitabh Bachchan.

The sculptor Arun Yogiraj, who is based in Mysuru, created the 51-inch-tall Ram Lalla idol. Along with the ten incarnations of Lord Vishnu, prominent Hindu deities like Lord Hanuman, and other religious symbols are also carved on the idol. On January 16, the complex seven-day preparations for the consecration ceremony got underway.

Saffron flags, enormous cutouts of Lord Ram, and banners with religious phrases pertaining to Lord Ram are all around Ayodhya. The consecration ritual has led to extensive security measures. On January 23, worshipers and visitors may enter the Ram temple for “darshan.”
