Video of Isha Ambani, Radhika Merchant doing Puja at Nita Ambani's store opening goes viral, watch

Nita Ambani, wife of Mukesh Ambani and one of India's top industrialists, is currently in the headlines due to the opening of her new flagship Swadesh store in Mumbai. Before the launch, the Ambani family gathered to perform a puja. Nita Ambani was seen performing the rituals along with her daughter Isha Ambani and daughters-in-law Shloka Ambani and Radhika Ambani. Swadesh is open at Mumbai's most iconic landmarks: the Eros Building in Churchgate. Reliance Industries inaugurated the Swadesh flagship store on July 25, 2025. Dressed in traditional attire with heavy jewellery, Isha wore a dark pink Patola saree, while Radhika opted for a yellow-golden silk saree. Radhika wore a heavy, embellished suit.

What made this look special was a ring-like armband that had belonged to his maternal great-grandmother. This is the same armband Nita wore on her wedding day. She now intends to pass it on to her daughter Isha and, in the future, to her granddaughter Veda Akash Ambani.

Swadesh is not your typical store. It's built on the idea that India's handmade heritage deserves the spotlight. From handwoven saris and hand-carved artifacts to textiles and décor from every corner of the country, Swadesh aims to create a space where ancient craft meets contemporary design. The idea is to not just sell products but to honour the skilled artisans behind them.

Backed by Yash Raj Films, it also features actor Jr NTR and Kiara Advani in lead roles. Recently, the makers unveiled the official trailer of the film which received mixed reviews from the fans and critics. War 2 trailer begins with Kabir (Hrithik) pledging to give up his name, family and home to become a shadow. Vikram (Jr NTR's character) promises to fight conflicts that no one else would dare to. We then see glimpses of Kabir romancing Kavya (Kiara Advani) as he solemnly expresses his willingness to leave everyone he's ever loved. What follows is a series of high-octane chase scenes, intense action and a heated confrontation between Hrithik and Jr NTR. Kiara, too, appears in action-packed scenes, indicating that she is not a bystander in this film. The film will face a big box office clash with Rajinikanth and director Lokesh Kanagaraj's highly anticipated Coolie. Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
