Taking to his X account, Anupam shared four videos, calling the event “spectacular, dignified, and sacred.”
In the videos, Vedic Pandits can be seen chanting important Vedic mantras, creating a spiritual atmosphere for the ceremony.
Many respected religious leaders attended the event, including Shankaracharya of Dwarka Peeth Swami Sadananda Saraswati and Shankaracharya of Jyotirmath Swami Avimukteshwaranand, who were warmly welcomed with standing ovations.
One video also shows Prime Minister Narendra Modi greeting the newlywed couple and blessing them with gifts.
Along with the video, the ‘Saaransh’ actor added a caption saying that the ceremony showcased the Vedic and Sanatani traditions of India to guests from around the world.
“What a spectacular, dignified and sacred #AashirwaadCeremony it was for the #AnantRadhikaWedding!!!
