The launch of Nita Ambani’s cultural center in Mumbai attracted a lot of attention, not just because of the celebrity guests, but also because of the center’s purpose. The center, called the Nita Ambani Center for Performing Arts and Culture (NMACC), is set to become a hub for artistic and cultural activities in the city, promoting Indian art and heritage.
Nita Ambani, who is the chairperson of Reliance Foundation, has been a longtime supporter of the arts and cultural initiatives in India, and the launch of the center is a testament to her commitment to promoting the country’s rich cultural heritage.
Apart from Tom Holland, Zendaya, and Gigi Hadid, the launch event was also attended by other prominent figures from the entertainment and sports industries, including filmmaker Karan Johar, cricketer Sachin Tendulkar, and actor Aamir Khan. The event was a star-studded affair, with guests dressed in their finest attire, and performances by renowned artists adding to the cultural extravaganza.
Spider-Man fame Tom Holland and Zendaya arrived in India to attend the launch of Nita Ambani’s cultural center, much to the delight of Indian Spider-Man fans. As the couple landed at Mumbai airport, they were met with a group of paparazzi who welcomed them, calling out to Tom in various ways, leaving everyone present in good spirits.
A group of paparazzi can be heard calling out to Tom in the most creative and enthusiastic ways possible. From long-drawn “Tom”s to “Aye Tomye/Tommy”, the paparazzi welcomed the actor like an old friend.
Similarly, on the second day of the event, the paparazzi welcomed supermodel Gigi Hadid in Marathi and even mistook her for Shakira, which caused a stir on the internet with many finding the videos hilarious.
They were heard saying things like, ‘Gigi didi ikde, ikde,’ and ‘yeh kaun hai? Shakira
The warm welcome and excitement towards Hollywood stars in India were evident in both instances.
