Kokilaben Ambani Sings Soulful Number For Grandson’s Wedding, Viral Video Wins Hearts Online

In a time when weddings are often all about grandeur and spectacle, a simple and heartfelt moment featuring Ambani family matriarch Kokilaben Ambani is winning hearts left, right and centre on the Internet. At her eldest grandson’s wedding celebrations, Kokilaben was seen blessing the couple by singing a customary wedding song.

What Does The Viral Video Show?

The now-viral video opens to show Kokilaben seated among family members as she sings a traditional song for her grandson Vikram Salgaocar, the son of Mukesh Ambani’s sister Deepti Salgaocar and her husband Dattaraj Salgaocar. As she sings, family members can be seen clapping along in rhythm. In the latter part of the video, Mukesh Ambani is also seen holding Akash Ambani and Shloka Mehta’s daughter, Veda.

In yet another video, Nita Ambani can be seen standing beside Kokilaben, enjoying the song, along with other family members, including daughter-in-law Radhika Merchant.

Since Ambanis are known for their lavish, larger-than-life events, this particular moment resonated with people for its simplicity. It served as a reminder that at the heart of every great Indian wedding, no matter how billionaire-backed, lie the age-old traditions and the blessings of the elders.
