Jeet Adani’s simple wedding shines with ₹10,000 crore philanthropy

Ahmedabad witnessed a wedding with a difference as Jeet Adani, the youngest son of business tycoon Gautam Adani, tied the knot with Diva Shah in an intimate ceremony attended only by close family and friends. While the wedding itself was modest, the occasion became a beacon of generosity, with Gautam Adani announcing a massive ₹10,000 crore donation for social welfare initiatives.

In a heartfelt message, Adani expressed gratitude for his son’s successful wedding, explaining that due to its small-scale nature, many well-wishers could not be invited. However, the event gained widespread attention as he pledged the substantial donation to fund world-class hospitals, medical colleges, schools, job opportunities, and skill development institutions to benefit the common people.

The philanthropic gesture far surpasses the reported ₹5,000 crore spent on Anant Ambani’s wedding, positioning Adani as a leading donor in India.

Adding to the goodwill, newlyweds Jeet Adani and Diva Shah announced an initiative to support differently-abled brides. Each year, 500 such brides will receive ₹10 lakh each, reinforcing their commitment to social upliftment.

By choosing a simple wedding and directing resources towards impactful social programs, the Adani family has set a powerful example of responsible wealth distribution, earning widespread praise across the country.
