As Tesla CEO Elon Musk occupies the top spot on Fortune's inaugural 2024 list of the 100 Most Powerful People in Business, Reliance Industries' Mukesh Ambani becomes the only Indian to find a spot. He is at the 12th position on the list, with other Indian-origin figures working for non-Indian companies like Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella and Google's Sundar Pichai. Mukesh Ambani is also trending on Google today as the photos of his daughter-in-law Radhika Merchant surface online.
While the businessman shares the accolade with the best in the world on the Fortune list, many also discuss how he maintains his fitness even at 67. His wife, Nita Ambani, reportedly revealed how the billionaire businessman ensured he stayed fit a while ago. Here are his secrets Mukesh Ambani's low-calorie vegetarian diet Mukesh Ambani is famously a big fan of South Indian dishes and vegetarian preparations from his home state, Gujarat.
His wife, Nita Ambani, said Mukesh ensures his diet is low-calorie and nutrient-rich. He starts the day at 5:30 am with meditation and yoga, including routines like a short walk and Surya namaskar. After that, he has a light breakfast with fresh fruits, juices, idli, and sambar.
For lunch, he sticks to traditional Gujarati meals, which include rice, dal, vegetables, salads, and sometimes soups. For mid-meal snacks, he loves the Gujarati snack banana-leaf-wrapped panki, which is made of rice flour batter seasoned with fenugreek and turmeric, topped with cheese, and served with achaar and chutney. What does Mukesh Ambani indulge in? While we saw him enjoy Gujarati snacks and street food from Varanasi during his son Anant's wedding, the business tycoon apparently avoids eating out most of the week.
His wife said that he eats out only once a week, the max. He also does not indulge in alcohol or junk food. He loves to indulge in various dishes from Cafe Mysore in Mumbai's Matunga, where he has been a frequent visitor since his student days.
