A video of Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant, filmed during a live IPL 2025 match, has gone viral across social media platforms, sparking a wave of mixed reactions from netizens. The clip, which shows the couple engaging in a moment of affection in the VIP stands, has drawn both support and criticism from viewers.
The footage quickly surfaced online after a camera captured the two sharing an intimate moment while cheering for their team. While many fans called the couple adorable and celebrated their chemistry, a section of social media users felt that the act was inappropriate for a public setting, especially during a family-friendly sporting event.
Critics accused the couple of setting a “wrong example” by indulging in such behavior during a televised event. Some even accused them of using the platform for publicity. On the other hand, their supporters defended the couple, saying it was a simple gesture of love and should not be blown out of proportion.
This isn’t the first time members of the Ambani family have made headlines during the IPL. As prominent figures in Indian business and cricket circles, their presence at matches always draws attention — but this particular video has amplified their visibility for all the wrong reasons.
So far, neither Anant nor Radhika has commented on the viral clip. However, given the traction the video is receiving, it remains to be seen whether a public statement will be issued.
