Recently, strong rumours of Anant Ambani, Nita and Mukesh Ambani's youngest son getting engaged to Radhika Merchant took social media by storm. While the news surprised many, some media reports further stated that the two, Anant Ambani and Isha Merchant would tie the knot in December, this year. The rumours got life after Isha Ambani, Anant Ambani's elder sister got engaged to Anand Piramal earlier this month. Piramal proposed to Isha on May 5.

But now refuting all the speculation, a Reliance spokerperson cleared the air and denied all the reports. He said that Anant Ambani is not engaged to Radhika Merchant. 

Akash Ambani, the elder son, was engaged to Shloka Mehta last month and they are also likely to be wedded by December. Shloka is the daughter of diamantaire Russell Mehta.

Radhika Merchant is said to have been a close friend to Anant Ambani. She was also spotted dancing alongside Isha Ambani and Shloka Mehta at Ambani’s house party celebrating Isha and Anand Primal’s engagement. 

Mukesh and Nita Ambani's eldest son Akash got engaged to Shloka Mehta, daughter of Russell and Mona Mehta.

According to media reports, Akash proposed to Sholka in March at a family gathering in Goa.

Akash and Shloka are alumni of Dhirubhai Ambani Internation School (DAIS) in Mumbai. The Ambanis and Mehtas, who own world's largest diamond trading company - Rosy Blue Diamonds - know each other very well. 

While Akash, along with sister Isha, is supposedly the brain behind Reliance Jio, Shloka is a Director of the Rosy Blue Foundation. She is also a co-founder of an organisation called ConnectFor. This organisation helps other NGOs get volunteers for their respective causes.

Though Shloka and Akash were studying together in DAIS, after graduation, they went their separate ways to pursue further studies. Akash is an alum of US Ivy League college, Brown University. Shloka studied anthropology at Princeton University. She did her Masters in Law from the prestigious London School of Economics.
