Antilia Was Lit Up In Festive Grandeur

The food wasn’t the only highlight. Antilia was transformed for the occasion with thousands of warm lights, cascading fairy lights, floral motifs and traditional decorative elements. The decor drew inspiration from Indian temple architecture, with ornate pillars, carved arches and layered backdrops in warm ochre, terracotta and golden tones.

Elaborate floral canopies added another layer to the festive setting, with red and saffron flowers arranged in jhumar-inspired structures and hanging floral arrangements. At the centre, Ganpati Bappa was placed against an ornate golden backdrop, surrounded by brass lamps, deepams, marigold garlands and jasmine gajras.

Nita Ambani, Mukesh Ambani, Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant were seen welcoming Ganpati Bappa at the celebrations.
