Following the star-studded wedding celebrations of Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant in Mumbai between July 12-14, the Ambani family will reportedly host another bash in London. Seemingly responding to the negative reaction across the border to the grand Ambani celebrations, Pakistani actor Nauman Ijaz has said that people should stop ‘criticising’ the Ambani wedding.

Naumaan Ijaz defends Ambani wedding

In a recent Instagram post, Nauman defended the extravagant wedding festivities and said the Ambanis were spending their money so let them 'enjoy'. He also advised people who were criticising the Ambanis to pray that one day, they become rich enough to have such a wedding themselves. He wrote alongside a picture of himself laughing, “One thing I am unable to understand is – who you are to criticise the wedding of Ambanis.”

'If you didn't like, just ignore'

He added, "Khushi unki, shadi unki, paisa unka, enjoyment unki, hum itni door baith ke unki khushi aur paisay per critise ker rahay hain (Their happiness, their wedding, their money, their enjoyment, why should we criticise the Ambanis from afar).... why are you so concerned? If you didn't like them (Ambanis) to be happy just ignore... nakay ehtajaj aur opinion dena farz ha....relax guys...dua karen Allah apko beh iss kabil banaey (Stop commenting and pray that you become wealthy enough to afford such a wedding)."

Nauman’s remark comes days after Pakistani actor Arsalan Naseer joked about Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant's grand wedding and pre-wedding celebrations that started in March. He took to Instagram Stories on Wednesday and wrote, "Itney der toh aaj kal relations nahi chalte... jitney inke functions chaley hai (Relationships these days don't last as long as their wedding functions have lasted)..."
