During her visit to Banaras pre-wedding, Nita Ambani immersed herself in the spiritual essence of the city, participating in the Ganga Aarti and savouring local delicacies from chaat shops. Inspired by this experience, she decided to infuse the wedding celebrations with the rich cultural heritage of Varanasi. The Ambani family has engaged thousands of artisans, weavers, and craftsmen to recreate the city's holy and spiritual atmosphere at the wedding venue.
