Although now Anant Ambani is known for his exotic taste in watches and cars, things were not always this way for him as he was mocked over his pocket money in school.

The school recently made it to the headlines after its annual day celebration was attended by Shah Rukh Khan, Bachchan family, Karan Johar and others.
Although Anant came from one of the richest families in India, his friends used to tease him often by saying “Tu Ambani hai ya bhikari!” as he used to get only Rs 5 as pocket money. In an old interview to iDiva, Nita Ambani revealed that her kids Akash Ambani, Isha Ambani and Anant Ambani used to get Rs 5 pocket money every week to teach them the value of money. Nita Ambani also revealed that his youngest son, Anant Ambani was once mocked in school for getting Rs 5 to spend in the canteen.
Mukesh Ambani and Nita Ambani cracked up when they heard this from their son.
