Isha Ambani: A rich female billionaire from India

Till date, it was the sons who used to get all the attentions in India but things are changing. Now, like the sons, the daughters are also making their marks. Meet Isha Ambani, daughter of Mukesh Ambani, Chairman and Managing Director of Reliance Industries. She is now one of the richest heiresses on Forbes’ list. In 2008, at the age of sixteen, she made it to the number two spot on the list of “Forbes top 10 billion heiresses” with a net worth of $80 million. The number one spot was taken by Vanisha, daughter of Lakshmi Mittal. In 2004, Lakshmi Mittal threw a lavish wedding party for Vanisha, where he spent $60 billion. Vanisha is currently serving as a director on the board of Lakshmi Mittal’s $103 billion steel company, ArcelorMittal.

Isha Ambani is the only daughter of Mukesh Ambani. She now appears in various functions with her father. Isha Ambani follows a simplistic approach towards life just like her father, Mukesh Ambani. She wears simple dresses. Recently, she appeared in a party with her father wearing a simple white kurta with gold and magenta trim, trendy tights, diamond drop earrings and tiny pink bindi. She was looking very beautiful and elegant. I was browsing the Internet reading about her and came across two pictures of Isha Ambani.

This picture was taken when she was sixteen years old. She looks like an ordinary teenage girl. Here are two more pictures of Isha Ambani along with his family.

Isha has a very good academic background. She remained the head girl in the Dhirubhai Ambani School. Like her father, Isha shares kin interest in business, art and sports. Isha Ambani also has very good leadership capabilities. It is only a matter of time that we would see Isha following her father’s foot steps and taking over the Ambani business empire. However, the biggest question remains- Would she be able to live up to everybody’s expectations and take the Ambani business to the next level?
