Anant Ambani, son of India’s richest man, is exceptionally spiritual. Numerous reports state that Anant Ambani is visiting the Lord Balaji temple as frequently, as possible.
To prove his faith, the affluent teenager decided to make a special donation for the temple. Anant Ambani ended up providing a sacred white elephant as a special present to Lord Balaji.
Nita and Mukesh Ambani celebrated 25 years of marriage. Mukesh has often stated in interviews that his family is of exceptional importance. No matter how busy his schedule is, Mukesh spends Sundays with his mother, wife and children.
The manner in which the Ambani family is decorated is also strongly evident of the family ties. A family photo or a photo of Mukesh Ambani’s father is available in each of the house’s rooms.
