Billionaire Mukesh Ambani and his wife Nita Ambani have make one of the most influential and powerful couples in the business sector of India, but not many people know that before marriage, Nita Ambani hailed from a middle-class family.
Before taking her husband Mukesh Ambani’s name, Nita Ambani’s last name was Dalal, daughter to Ravindrabhai Dalal and Purnima Dalal. Ravindrabhai Dalal used to work at a senior manager level in Aditya Birla group, but not many people know about Nita Ambani’s mother.
Nita Dalal’s mother Purnima Dalal is often spotted by her daughter’s side during all the family functions and public gatherings. She is also seen attending all the Indian Premier League (IPL) games of Mumbai Indians, the team owned by her daughter Nita Ambani.
Not just this, but Purnima Dalal was also dubbed as ‘Prayer Aunty’ on Twitter years ago, when she was seen attending a Mumbai Indians match in the IPL to show support for her daughter’s team. We will tell you the story behind her Twitter nickname.
Purnima Dalal gained Twitter fame back in 2017, when she was seen supporting Mumbai Indians during the IPL final. During the nail-biting final between Mumbai and Pune, the situation was tense and MI needed just one run to emerge as the third time IPL winner.
While the entire Ambani family was seen cheering Rohit Sharma’s squad on, Nita Ambani’s mother Purnima Dalal was seen with closed eyes and folded hands, praying for Mumbai Indians’ third IPL win, getting them a new record.
As MI ended up scoring the final run and winning the IPL 2017 title, Twitter hailed Purnima Dalal and dubbed her the ‘Prayer Aunty’ of Twitter for her devotion and support for her daughter’s IPL team, crediting her with MI’s win.
Nita Ambani is a spitting image of her mother Purnima Dalal, as the duo is often seen side to side at all family events.
