Jeet Adani and Diva Shah, daughter of Surat diamond merchant Jaimin Shah, are getting married on February 7.
Industrialist Gautam Adani denies the reports of his son Jeet’s wedding being a ‘Maha Kumbh of celebrities’, quashing the buzz around pop sensation Taylor Swift performing for the first time in India. Adani, who spoke to the media after performing the Ganga Aarti with his family at Prayagraj’s Triveni Sangam, said the wedding will be a “simple and traditional family affair”.
There were reports of the billionaire family approaching Swift to perform during the pre-wedding festivities of Jeet and Diva Shah, daughter of Surat diamond merchant Jaimin Shah. However, there was never any official confirmation from either the Adanis or Swift.
Jeet and Diva got engaged in March 2023 and their engagement, too, was a low-key ceremony in Ahmedabad, Gujarat. The two are likely to tie the knot on February 7.
Social media has been awash with reports that global stars and celebrities will be attending the wedding. The speculated guest names included Elon Musk, Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerberg, Daniel Craig, Taylor Swift, Justin Bieber, Kanye West, the Kardashian sisters, Rafael Nadal, Diljit Dosanjh, Sundar Pichai, Satya Nadella, Billie Eilish, Coldplay, and even King Charles and the Pope.
“My upbringing and our way of doing things are that of a common person from the working class. Jeet too is here for Ma Ganga’s blessings. The wedding will be a simple and traditional family affair,” said Adani, who was accompanied by his wife Priti Adani, sons Karan and Jeet, daughter-in-law Paridhi, and granddaughter Kaveri, on Tuesday.
At the Maha Kumbh, the Adani family offered prayers at the Lete Hanuman Temple after participating in the Mahaprasad Seva at ISKCON, where Adani is supporting the distribution of more than one lakh free meals daily. Adani is also giving away one crore prayer books printed by the renowned Gita Press of Gorakhpur.
