Currently, Anant Ambani holds key positions as a director at Jio Platforms Limited and Reliance Retail Ventures, Ltd. However, among all the jobs he performs, Anant is particularly focused on renewable energy development and actively involved in environmental conservation activities.

That's why Anant holds the position of director of Reliance Industries in the field of energy business. His role is in global operations in the field of renewable energy and green energy. Anant is also a member of the board of directors at Jio Institute, a subsidiary of Reliance.

4. Chronic Asthma

Anant was indeed born into a wealthy family and lacked nothing materialistically. However, he had a health condition that made him frequently sick since birth.

"I often experienced health crises since I was a child, but my parents made sure I didn't feel the pain. My parents always provided encouragement and convinced me that if I believe I can do it, then I will succeed," he said.

Anant suffers from chronic asthma, which requires him to consume high doses of steroids. This caused Anant's weight to continuously increase and even made him a subject of ridicule in India.

Anant previously went on a diet to lose weight and successfully lost 108 kilograms in 18 months. However, due to the medication he had to take, his weight drastically increased again.

5. Rp1.8 Trillion Pre-Wedding Party

Anant has now become the public's attention due to his pre-wedding event with Radhika Merchant. Anant's relationship with Radhika has been noticed by the public for several years now and has received approval from both families.

Radhika herself is the daughter of Indian billionaire, Verma Merchant. So both families are equally wealthy.

At the pre-wedding event, Anant and his family invited Rihanna and Akon to entertain the guests. The total cost spent for this party is Rp1.8 trillion. However, it is not a problem, as the total wealth of the Ambani family is currently Rp1,800 trillion.
