Celebrities who attended the Mameru ceremony
Many celebrities showed their presence at the Mameru ceremony.

What is the Mameru ceremony?
In Gujarati culture, the Mameru custom, which is also known as mosalu, is observed before the wedding ceremony. In the ceremony, the groom’s mother’s side of the family visits the home in Mosalu to bless the couple and bring gifts and offerings. So, in this case, it was Nita Ambani’s family; her mother, Purnima Dalal, and her sister, Mamta Dalal, who led the delegation.
A customary set of presents known as “Mameru” was given to the bride and groom by the maternal aunts and relatives of the groom. Mosalu and Mameru are the reflection of how the extended family is treated and included in the wedding celebrations. These events underscore the importance of nuptials for the larger family and provide the chance for them to get together and celebrate. The event also involves the whole family getting together to bless the would-be bride and groom.
