The birthday celebration of Anant Ambani, the scion of the Ambani family, turned into an unforgettable gala as Bollywood superstar Salman Khan and celebrated Punjabi singer B Praak performed a unique rendition of the song “Saari Duniya Jalaa Denge” from the upcoming movie “Animal.” The party, held at the Ambani estate in Jamnagar, Gujarat, not only marked Anant’s special day but also served as a precursor to his impending nuptials with fiancée Radhika Merchant.
The festivities kick-started in March with a lavishly organized pre-wedding celebration, drawing the who’s who of Bollywood to Gujarat. The latest event, Anant’s birthday bash, kept the momentum going with high-profile celebrities in attendance once again. It was during this bash that a now-viral video surfaced on social media platforms, showcasing Salman Khan alongside B Praak in a duet dedicated to the birthday boy.
Footage from April 9th revealed B Praak sharing glimpses of the event on his Instagram, with images capturing the ambiance of the party. Among the highlights, a video where Salman Khan and B Praak are seen singing “Duniya Jalaa Denge,” providing not just musical entertainment but also personalizing the tune with a birthday twist for Anant, much to the delight of him and Radhika Merchant, who were seated prominently as the guests of honor.
The day before, anticipation had gripped Jamnagar as Salman Khan was spotted arriving at the local airport. The presence of Salman, instantly recognizable in his casual black T-shirt and blue jeans combo, was a sign of the grandeur to come. Joining him were other notable personalities, including Janhvi Kapoor’s rumored beau Shikhar Pahariya and actors Orry and Meezaan Jafri. As speculations swirled about which other stars would turn up, it was clear that the Ambanis were setting the stage for yet another extravagant event.
The buzz around Anant Ambani’s birthday celebration also served as a reminder of the eagerly anticipated marital union between Anant and Radhika Merchant later in the year, which promises to be an event of epic proportions.
Turning to Salman Khan’s professional ventures, there was much talk around his upcoming film ‘Bull.’ Fans had been holding their breath for this movie, as it symbolized the reunion of Salman with his old colleague Karan Johar after nearly a quarter of a century. However, it seems that the reunion is not destined to happen any time soon. ‘Bull’ has seen multiple schedule shifts, from an initial November 2023 start to further postponements. When Karan requested more time to finalize the shooting schedule, Salman graciously opted to prioritize a project with his friend Sajid Nadiadwala instead.
In Bollywood Hungama, a confidential source imparted that the indecision over the ‘Bull’ shoot timelines led Salman to amicably withdraw from the project, choosing to maintain his commitment to Sajid Nadiadwala’s film. In a notable development on the work front earlier this month, Salman made an announcement about his collaboration with director AR Murugadoss, confirming that this upcoming project would be produced under Sajid Nadiadwala’s banner and is slated for an EID 2025 release.
As fans eagerly await this venture, the glitzy celebration of Anant Ambani’s birthday marked by Salman Khan and B Praak’s musical performance remains a testament to the intertwining of Bollywood’s luminaries with India’s biggest names in business and spectacle.
