Mumbai, India – July 19, 2025 – Shloka Mehta, the elder daughter-in-law of Indian billionaire Mukesh Ambani and philanthropist Nita Ambani, recently made a poignant statement about motherhood, emphasizing the pride she takes in shaping the values of her children and her niece and nephew. Speaking at a public event, Mehta, married to Akash Ambani, chairman of Reliance Jio Infocomm Limited, highlighted the importance of instilling a sense of responsibility and legacy in the next generation of the Ambani family.
“I take a lot of pride in telling my kids, Prithvi and Veda, as well as my niece and nephew, about the values that define our family,” Mehta said, addressing an audience at an event focused on family and legacy. “It’s not just about what we achieve, but how we contribute to society and leave a meaningful impact for future generations.” Her remarks underscored her commitment to raising her children with humility and purpose, values she credits to her upbringing and the influence of her in-laws, Mukesh and Nita Ambani.
Mehta, a director at Rosy Blue India and founder of the philanthropic venture ConnectFor, has often been recognized for her grounded demeanor despite being part of one of Asia’s wealthiest families. She spoke candidly about balancing her roles as a mother, philanthropist, and businesswoman, emphasizing the support she receives from her husband, Akash Ambani. “Akash has been my biggest supporter, encouraging me to pursue my passions while we raise our children together,” she added, highlighting the couple’s partnership in both personal and professional spheres.
The event, attended by prominent figures from business and philanthropy, also shed light on Mehta’s work with ConnectFor, an initiative that connects volunteers with non-profits to maximize social impact. Reflecting on her journey, she shared how her experiences as a mother have deepened her commitment to creating opportunities for others. “Motherhood has taught me the value of nurturing—not just my own children, but also the communities we serve through our initiatives,” she said.
Shloka Mehta and Akash Ambani, married in 2019, are parents to two children, Prithvi (born December 2020) and Veda (born May 2023).
