Kim and Khloé Kardashian are receiving a very enthusiastic welcome in India!

The SKKN by Kim founder, 43, and the Good American co-founder, 40, shared an inside look at their arrival in Mumbai on Thursday, July 11 ahead of their attendance at billionaire heir Anant Ambani and his fiancée Radhika Merchant’s extravagant wedding.

In a series of videos and photos shared to her Instagram Stories, Kim revealed the pair’s car ride to their hotel during which they were swarmed by photographers. Flashbulbs can be seen popping in front of the car's windshield as the driver attempts to navigate the sisters through the streets.

Some of the crowd hold up professional cameras while others appear to be fans, trying to get a shot with their phone cameras.

Once they safely made it to their destination, both sisters showed off the warm welcome and blessings they received through the traditional Hindu ceremony known as arti from hotel staff members.

During the ceremony, one of the employees holds a steel platter (called a thali) equipped with a lit lamp in the center (a diya). Orange marigolds adorn the platter as the employee applies a red powder (known as kumkum) to both of their foreheads.
