Mukesh Ambani said, "Today Lord Ram is coming, on January 22 there will be Ram Diwali for the entire country.

After attending the consecration ceremony, Nita Ambani said, "This is a historic day."

On the occasion of Ramlala Pran Pratishtha, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said that this ceremony symbolizes the arrival of a new era. He called for going beyond the construction of Ram Temple and laying the foundation of a strong, grand and divine India for the next 1,000 years.

A day before the grand event, Antilia, the residence of the Ambani family, was decorated on the theme of Lord Ram. Antilia was illuminated with holograms depicting 'Jai Shri Ram' and lamps. Along with this, Reliance Industries had announced a holiday for lakhs of Reliance families to celebrate and participate in the 'Pran Pratishtha' ceremony.

Ram temple has been constructed in traditional Nagar style. It has a total of 392 pillars and 44 doors. Also, Hindu gods and goddesses have been depicted on the pillars and walls of the temple. The childhood form of Lord Shri Ram (the idol of Shri Ramlala) has been consecrated in the main sanctum sanctorum located on the ground floor.
