Indian weddings are typically grand celebrations, as anyone from the South Asian community can attest to. The average Indian wedding can cost anywhere between 30K to 100K USD. Many supporters of the Ambani wedding’s grandeur point out that the scale of the wedding, while out of reach for most in society, should not be over-analysed; as one of the richest families in the world, the Ambanis have money to put towards such a spectacle, and are entitled to do so. The chief criticism of the wedding is that its massive budget is tone-deaf and irresponsible in a country with such a stark divide between rich and poor, and where a large number of people live in extreme poverty. Whether justified or not, a noteworthy motive for the lavish wedding that is making rounds in the media is that the wedding is an attempt to showcase India’s growing international cultural and economic power, and court western audiences. Is this accurate? Is it working? -Lavan Kandiah, PMP®, M.Sc.
The Ambani wedding - a tool for national power projection or just tacky?

Queerness has a rich and complex history in Tamil culture, intertwined with the region's deep-rooted traditions and religious narratives. Ancient Tamil literature and folklore are replete with references to diverse sexual orientations and gender identities. The "Thirukkural," an ancient Tamil text, and works of Sangam literature include subtle acknowledgments of non-binary and same-sex relationships.
