Attendees included Reliance Foundation chairperson Nita Ambani, the fugitive founder of Indian Premier League (IPL) Lalit Modi, and supermodel Ujjawala Raut, according to an India Today report.

Previously, the 68-year-old was married twice. Meenakshi Salve and Caroline Brossard were Salve’s earlier wives. Salve and his first wife Meenakshi divorced after 38 years of marriage in June 2020.

He has appeared for corporations like several Tata Group companies and ITC Limited. Salve has represented Vodafone in its $2.5 billion tax dispute with the Government of India.

Salve also came into the limelight in May 2017 for representing Kulbhushan Jadhav in the International Court of Justice (ICJ). A Pakistani military court had sentenced Jadhav to death on charges of spying. Due to Salve’s convincing arguments, the ICJ ordered a provisional stay on Jadhav’s conviction till a final verdict is declared. Harish Salve had charged only Re 1 to fight this case, according to former External Affairs Minister Late Sushma Swaraj. In 2018, Salve represented the Union government in the Supreme Court during the Cauvery water dispute.
