MUMBAI: Indian billionaire Mukesh Ambani's son got married on Friday (July 12) in a lavish ceremony that has been a hot talking point at home and abroad, with Ambani's US$260 billion-conglomerate Reliance taking to social media to heavily publicise the event.
Reliance's efforts, coupled with posts from a host of Bollywood stars and coverage in media, have helped whip up public interest in the wedding, overshadowing some critical social media posts that have questioned the opulence at a time of growing inequality in India.
