"I have grown up here, and it's my good fortune that we could plan the celebration here. This is my dadi's janmbhoomi and my dada and papa's karmbhoomi. And this is my home. My father often says that this is my dada's sasural (in-laws' house), and hence we are celebrating here. I also believe I am from Jamnagar, yahin ka nagarik hun," Ambani told in an interview to India Today.

Ambani also said that another factor responsible for the pre-wedding festivities to happen in India was Prime Minister Narendra Modi encouraging residents to conduct weddings in the country, instead of choosing a location overseas.
