Nita Ambani, whose net worth is reportedly $117.8 billion, is one of the richest women in the world today. But her path to riches did not start with riches. She married Mukesh Ambani, Chairman and Managing Director of Reliance Industries, in 1985, after a whirlwind courtship of just three weeks. However, before getting married, Nita Ambani made one request to the Ambani family from the bottom of her heart. What was her wish? Well, she wanted to continue to work as a school teacher after she got married. Mukesh Ambani's wife, Nita Ambani, once worked as a school teacher; her first salary was Rs…, it was spent on…
In a rare joint appearance with her husband on Rendezvous with Simi Garewal, Nita revealed that her first salary as an educator was only Rs. 800. She came from a humble and obscure Gujarati family. Her father, Ravindrabhai Dalal, had worked as a senior executive at the Birla Group. Nita Dalal began her career in education as a teacher at Sunflower Nursery School, earning a salary of Rs 800 a month. In a wonderful light pink-peach saree, simple little necklace, Nita Ambani showcased her ever-green elegance while the chairperson of Reliance Industries, Mukesh Ambani, rocked a grey pantsuit and red tie.
While on Rendezvous with Simi Garewal, Nita recalled her time as a teacher and how pleasurable it was, considering she earned only eight hundred rupees a month. Mukesh jokingly said that all of her salary went to their meals when they were just starting out. In the interview, Mukesh states, 'As soon as we married, the next year she was a school teacher.'Later, Nita Ambani stated, 'At Sunflower Nursery and it paid me Rs 800 per month.'
Mukesh joyfully added, 'And all that salary was mine. It paid for all our dinners'. Remembering the old days, Nita said, 'People used to laugh at me at that time, but I think it gave me a lot of satisfaction'. During the interview on Rendezvous with Simi Garewal, Nita shared that some people ridiculed her for choosing to be a school teacher, but she finds happiness and fulfillment as a teacher. Although Nita Ambani is not currently a school teacher, she is the founder and chairperson of the Dhirubhai Ambani International School.
