‘I am lucky to have her’
In an interview with India Today, ahead of his pre-wedding celebrations in Gujarat’s Jamnagar last year, Anant revealed the name of the person who always stood by him through ups and downs. It’s not his parents, Mukesh Ambani and Nita Ambani, or siblings Isha Ambani and Akash Ambani. Anant called Radhika Merchant his strength.
Anant Ambani told India Today, “I am lucky (to have her) for sure. She is the person of my dreams. Since childhood, I had thought that I would never get married because I was always devoted to taking care of animals. But when I met Radhika, I saw her sharing the same values as me. She has this sense of giving and nurturing towards animals.”
‘A strong pillar of support’
Confessing that though his parents supported him, it was Radhika who gave him strength, Anant shared, “Beyond that, Radhika has stood like a strong pillar of support during my difficult times, as I battled with health issues. Even my parents never made me feel like I was ill. Even when doctors gave up on certain things, they never did. Additionally, Radhika gave me strength.”
