Renowned pop star Rihanna, famous for her global tours, is set to receive a substantial payment for her upcoming performance at the pre-wedding celebrations of Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant.
Sources close to the media revealed that her fee for the performance ranges between $8 to $9 million (approximately Rs 66 to 74 crore). The festivities are scheduled to commence today, March 1, with an event titled 'An evening in Everland'.
Rihanna arrived in Gujarat's Jamnagar on February 29, accompanied by her team. Photographers captured her arrival at the airport, generating considerable excitement.
Reports indicate that Rihanna's performance is anticipated to be extravagant, featuring a mix of her popular hits and solo renditions such as 'Diamonds'.
A significant portion of the expenses for her performance has purportedly been allocated to transporting her stage equipment and managing costume changes for both herself and her backup singers.
Rihanna's most recent performance was at the 2023 Super Bowl halftime show, which drew an impressive audience of nearly 121.017 million viewers, making it one of the most-viewed Super Bowl events to date.
Notably, Rihanna is not the first international artist to perform at an Ambani wedding. In 2018, Beyoncé performed at Isha Ambani and Anand Piramal’s sangeet, reportedly earning approximately $4 million (around Rs 33 crore).
Aside from Rihanna, Diljit Dosanjh is expected to entertain guests at the grand event. Another highlight of the pre-wedding celebrations will be a performance by renowned illusionist David Blaine.
