Kim Kardashian Talks Ambani Wedding In Viral Clip, Says She Was Disappointed In India: 'At Least There's A...'

Recently, Kim Kardashian shared a surprising take on her trip to India, admitting she expected it to resemble the magical world of Disney’s Aladdin. The reality star and her sister Khloé Kardashian jetted off to Mumbai last July for a whirlwind 48-hour visit to attend the extravagant wedding of Anant Ambani, the youngest son of Asia’s richest man, Mukesh Ambani, and Radhika Merchant, daughter of Indian pharmaceutical tycoons Viren and Shaila Merchant. The lavish event, steeped in Hindu traditions, drew a slew of A-list guests, but it was Kim’s culture shock that stole the spotlight in a recent episode of their family’s reality show, airing as of 15 March 2025.

The sisters arrived in Mumbai at midnight, kicking off their short stay with fittings for their ceremonial outfits. “We’re only here for 48 hours, and we do have a schedule,” Khloé explained in a confessional, adding, “We’re planning to go to some of the local markets before we have to go to the wedding so we can enjoy as much of India as possible.” Kim chimed in, saying, “We want to go explore the city,” eager to soak in the experience.



But when they hit the streets, reality didn’t match Kim’s fairy-tale vision. “I thought it was going to be like the marketplace,” she said, clarifying, “What you see Aladdin going through and stealing the bread from. That’s where I thought we were going.

I don’t do random dogs!” Meanwhile, Khloé pointed out, “At least there’s a Starbucks here,” trying to find a silver lining.

The pair eventually hopped into a rickshaw and browsed local stalls, picking up a Princess Jasmine figurine for Kim’s daughter Chicago, 7, along with jewelry and silver pill boxes for their family. A post shared by The Kardashians (@kardashianshulu) Kim also addressed a wardrobe controversy from the trip. She wore red to the wedding, a color traditionally reserved for brides in Hindu culture, but clarified, “In the olden days in India, you couldn’t wear red.

But now red is accepted, so I’m gonna wear red.” She noted that their designers, tied to the Ambani family, had pre-approved all outfit choices. Despite the hiccups, Kim later gushed, “I just feel like Princess Jasmine.

This is where I am meant to be,” showing her love for the Disney vibe she’d hoped to find. See Also: Kim And Khloe Kardashian Visit Mumbai's ISKCON Temple, Serve Food To Children In New Viral Pics.
