Mrs.Nita Mukesh Ambani sharing her life and her way of living her personal as well as professional life.
Daughter, wife, mother, team owner, educationist… which of these roles defines you best?
“I am enjoying my every role, but being a mother comes first” says Nita Ambani . She had her childen after eight years of marriage. It was a dream come true.
Are you a hands-on mom?
Very much. Nita Ambani knows that Anant is eating at Kamat’s right now. The children always tell her what they are doing and where they are going.
“Swimming, dancing and spending time with the children. I tried to interest my daughter in dancing, but she didn’t take to it. As a five-year-old, she got lost on the way to her first class. After that she didn’t go to dance class again. For me, dance is like meditation. It’s my connection to God. I’m lucky I have found a passion that keeps me going. I find it rejuvenating. I think it’s very important for every woman to experience something that allows her to connect to her innermost self. You look like a perfectionist.” Said Mrs. Nita Mukesh Ambani.
“You know, many people tell me that, but I have not realized that for myself. I strive to put in my best effort in whatever I do. Even now, Firuza (Dr Parekh, a friend of many years) tells me to stop getting involved with the nitty-gritty of everything. I get involved in which machines have to be ordered, from which company, which doctors to get on board, etc. I am not really working for results, I am just driven by the job at hand. I think if you are passionate about what you do, it brings out your best. If something doesn’t excite me, I can’t put in my best.” Nita added
