Kokilaben Ambani, the mother of industrialists Mukesh and Anil Ambani, was taken into HN Reliance Hospital in Mumbai on Friday due to a sudden health issue. The 91-year-old was allegedly brought in for treatment within the morning hours, raising alarm regarding her health. Videos of the Ambani family’s motorcade at the hospital soon generated public interest, and clips went viral across social media. Hospital doctors have not made any statement regarding her health but considering her age, the development has created understandable concern. The Ambani family still hasn’t issued any official statement.
Kokilaben is seen as the driving force behind India’s most successful business family. She was married to late Dhirubhai Ambani, the genius who started Reliance Industries and turned it into a multinational conglomerate. Ever since his demise in 2002, Kokilaben has dominated both family and public life.
Her strongest moment was when, in the early 2000s, Mukesh and Anil had disputes regarding the management of Reliance which went public. She acted as a mediator at the time, intervening to bring reconciliation between her sons and ensuring that the assets were divided in a way that enabled both of them to follow their business aspirations independently.
