Maharashtra, the richest state in India, is voting in a single phase for all 288 members of the legislative assembly. Voting began at 7 am this morning.
Several A-list celebrities, including Akashay Kumar, Kareena Kapoor, Saif Ali Khan and Madhuri Dixit, have already exercised their franchise by voting in the assembly election. Mukesh Ambani is among the few Mumbai-based industrialists who have cast their votes in the election – earlier today, Bajaj Auto chairman Niraj Bajaj was also photographed outside a polling booth in the city.

The Ambani family stepped out to vote a couple of days after celebrating the second birthday of Isha Ambani’s twins – Krishna and Aadiyashakti.
Before this, Anant Ambani had been spotted holidaying in Dubai and the Maldives. Anant Ambani is the younger son of Mukesh and Nita Ambani. He married Radhika Merchant, daughter of entrepreneurs Shaila and Viren Merchant, in a star-studded ceremony in Mumbai on July 12.
For the Ambani family, this is the second time in a year that they have voted as Indian citizens. In May, Nita and Mukesh Ambani also cast their vote for Lok Sabha Elections 2024.
