Nita Ambani married Mukesh Ambani only on this condition, it was related to...
Nita Ambani married Mukesh Ambani only on this condition, it was related to... Nita Ambani is popular for her philanthropic works. She holds several responsibilities, from being the chairperson of Dhirubhai Ambani International School to handling Reliance Foundation. She seeks to empower millions of Indians. For the unversed, Nita is the owner of Mumbai Indians, the most successful cricket team in the Indian Premier League, the founder chairperson of Football Sports Development Limited, which launched the Indian Super League, and the head of the Education and Sports for All initiative for children. But many people don't know that Nita Ambani had this one condition before marrying Mukesh Ambani. What was the condition? Before marrying Mukesh Ambani, son of Dhirubhai Ambani, Nita was working as a school teacher. She hailed from a simple and humble Gujarati family. Her father, Ravindrabhai Dalal, used to hold a senior position at the Birla Group. Born as Nita Dalal, she started her career in education as a teacher at Sunflower Nursery School, where she earned a modest salary of Rs 800 per month. Apart from her professional achievement, Nita is also a trained Bharatnatyam dancer. It was this time that Dhirubhai Ambani, Mukesh Ambani's father, saw Nita performing a classical dance at an event. Amazed by her grace and presence, Dhirubhai expressed his wish to make her his daughter-in-law. Dhirubhai Ambani approached Nita's father with a marriage proposal for his son Mukesh. At first, Nita wasn't very sure about marrying Mukesh. According to the media reports, Nita was concerned because he belonged to a very wealthy family, while she came from a modest background. Nita also kept one condition before saying yes to Mukesh Ambani. If media reports are to be believed, Nita wanted to continue working as a teacher after marriage. She agreed to marry Mukesh only after he accepted her wish. In an earlier interview on Rendezvous with Simi Garewal, Nita revealed that while some people mocked her decision to work at a school, she found deep fulfillment and joy in her role as a teacher. In the interview, Mukesh can be heard saying, 'As soon as we married, the next year she was a school teacher.' Later, Nita Ambani says, 'At Sunflower Nursery and it paid me Rs 800 per month.' Mukesh playfully 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'. Mukesh and Nita Ambani got married in 1985.

Known for her glamorous sartorial choices and opulent presence, Nita Ambani surprised many with her understated and graceful look during a recent spiritual visit to Amritsar. The Reliance Foundation Chairperson paid her respects at the Golden Temple and Bangla Sahib Gurudwara, embracing tradition and simplicity in both her demeanor and attire. For the visit, Nita stepped away from her usual designer ensembles and extravagant jewellery, opting instead for a modest and respectful look. She wore a casual denim and top combination—a far cry from her high-fashion appearances—paired with a striking rani pink dupatta that brought a traditional flair to the outfit. The dupatta, adorned with delicate white bandhani prints and finished with elegant gold borders, was draped gracefully over her head, in keeping with Sikh customs of covering one's head at the Gurudwara. Her accessories, too, were refreshingly minimal. She sported a stylish gold wristwatch, a simple diamond ring, and a pair of nude heels. Eschewing heavy jewels, her look was balanced and elegant, showing that grace doesn't always need grandeur. Nita's makeup echoed her ensemble's subtlety—muted tones of nude eyeshadow, softly blushed cheeks, mascara-laden lashes, and a natural nude lip gave her a radiant but grounded appearance. Her hair was neatly tied into a bun, completing the clean and composed look. Nita Ambani, wife of business magnate Mukesh Ambani, is one of India's most influential women. A philanthropist and educationist, she is the driving force behind initiatives like the Reliance Foundation and Dhirubhai Ambani International School. Her recent appearance in Amritsar showcased a different side to her—one of humility, faith, and quiet elegance, proving that simplicity can indeed be the ultimate sophistication.
