Anant Ambani is grabbing headlines for his weight gain again after a video of him and Radhika Merchant from Dubai went viral 

In the video, Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant could be seen walking the streets of Dubai but what people noticed was Anant Ambani's drastic weight gain

Mukesh Ambani and Nita Ambani’s youngest son Anant Ambani previously grabbed headlines in 2016 as he succeeded in reducing his weight by 108 kgs in just 18 months

Anant Ambani went from 208 kgs to 100 kgs in only 18 months and his incredible weight loss journey became an inspiration for millions of people

Nita Ambani had said in an interview in 2017 that Anant Ambani had severe asthma and he was prescribed steroids by doctors to cure it

According to Nita Ambani, the steroids which Anant Ambani took for the treatment of asthma made him gain weight again

According to health experts, asthma could prevent a person from exercising or doing hard physical activities. Use of steroids for a long period of time could make a person hungrier than usual which can ultimately lead to obesity
