of the daughter of India’s richest man, Mukesh Ambani, along with
Bollywood stars.Isha Ambani, 27, daughter of Reliance Industries
chairman Mukesh Ambani, will marry Mr Anand Piramal, 33, in the
financial capital of Mumbai next Wednesday (Dec 12), but the
celebrations began this weekend in the desert city of Udaipur, with
feasts, singing and dancing, and other pre-wedding rituals. Yesterday,
American politician Hillary Clinton arrived at Udaipur to be a part of
this big Indian wedding.While Beyoncé has arrived today, her team of 60
dancers who arrived yesterday, are already in Udaipur. The singer is all
ready to set the stage on fire and entertain the guests.Dozens of
chartered planes carrying top industrialists, politicians, sports and
Bollywood stars flew into a sleepy airport in western India on
Saturday, for the lavish pre-wedding festivities of Isha.From
Bollywood, celebrities like Shah Rukh Khan, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan,
Priyanka Chopra, Nick Jonas, Karan Johar , Aamir Khan, Katrina Kaif,
Salman Khan, Janhvi Kapoor, Varun Dhawan and many others have already
arrived in Udaipur. Security
was beefed up as the high-profile guests started arriving at Udaipur's
airport, said a source at the scene, who asked not to be identified.
Outside, they were awaited by luxury sedans driven by chauffers wearing
white uniforms and colourful Rajasthani turbans.The Clintons and the
Ambanis have an association that goes back more than 18 years and have
met several times both in India and abroad, according to Indian media
reports.Then President Bill Clinton held meetings in India with the
Ambanis, including deceased founder and Mr Mukesh's father Dhirubhai
Ambani, just before and after he left the presidency in 2000-2001.In
March this year, when Mrs Clinton visited India to deliver a keynote
speech at a conference in Mumbai, she dined with the Ambanis at their
27-floor Antilia residence - one of the world's most expensive homes.
