Billionaire Mukesh Ambani: Asia's richest man, India's "national asset", enjoys security like prime minister

The Ambani family is one of the most prominent and influential business dynasties in India. The rise of this family in recent times is often compared to the Rockefeller family in America.

Indian billionaire Mukesh Ambani, the boss of Reliance Industries Group, has returned to his position as Asia's richest person, according to the latest Forbes report. With a net worth of $83.4 billion, Ambani, 65, ranks No. 9 on the list of the world's billionaires.

Last year, Ambani's oil and telecom conglomerate Reliance Industries became the first Indian company to cross the $100 billion mark in revenue. Forbes said Ambani had avoided speculation about the succession by giving his children key roles in the conglomerate. This helps the company avoid external uncertainties.

Besides, Asia's richest man - Indian billionaire Mukesh Ambani - is about to join the club of billionaires with a fortune of $ 100 billion in the world. Currently, billionaires in the Top 10 richest people in the world are members of this club.

Billionaires and celebrities often spend mone.y to protect themselves from security threats as well as fans. Mukesh Ambani, chairman of the Reliance Industries empire and India's richest man, is no exception.

Not only did he hire his own security team, Mukesh Ambani also enjoyed the government's Z security regime – a regime for high-ranking officials, including judges, mayors and politicians. This mode is divided into 4 classes which stipulate the number of security personnel, the type of vehicles and weapons provided for protection. The highest rank is Z, reserved only for a few special cases such as the prime minister of India. Currently, only 17 people enjoy the Z regime.

With Z, the character will be guarded by 55 security personnel, including at least 10 senior National Security Officers working 24/7. These employees are allowed to carry heavier weapons than employees at conventional security companies.

According to the South China Morning Post, in India, Ambani is considered a "national asset." He began enjoying special government security protection after receiving an anonymous threatening letter in 2008.

Despite enjoying 24/7 protection, Ambani has to pay his senior National Security Officers, estimated at $22,000 a month, and provide them with accommodation.

For added peace of mind, the billionaire even hired retired National Security Officers to protect him. Besides, all of his cars are armored and bulletproof.

In life, the Ambani family also shares a love for rare and exclusive cars. It is not natural that the Indian media has always assumed that its car collection is one of the largest in the country. In the $2.8 billion mansion, Ambani members keep fleets of cars that are "above and beyond," from countless Italian supercars to Mercedes-AMG G63 series with many personal customizations. This is something that is not easily found in India.

In addition to his huge fortune, Mukesh Ambani is also famous for "dominating" when building the most expensive private house in the world. Ambani's residence, called Antilia, is 27 stories high in the middle of Mumbai. The landlord hired up to 600 employees just to service and operate the house.

"Antilia" is located on Altamount Road (Mumbai), one of the most expensive roads on the planet. With a floor area of up to 4532 ^m2, this is a valuable residential property second only to England's Buckingham Palace. In fact, Buckingham Palace is a royal property, making Antilia the most expensive residence in the world.

Antilia was designed by well-known architectural firms such as Perkins & Will, Hirsch Bedner Associates,... This house with a height of 173m is one of the tallest structures in Mumbai. Ambani had to pay about $ 2 billion to complete this unique house.

Mukesh Ambani has dedicated 6 floors to his supercars. His supercar collection includes 168 cars from many of the world's leading brands: Mercedes, Bentley, Roll Royces, Aston Martin,... Ambani even has its own car service station on the 7th floor.

Recently, the media discovered another interesting thing in this family's collection. It was the appearance of a colour-changing Rolls-Royce Cullinan, allegedly owned by Mukesh and Nita Ambani's daughter.

As can be seen, British luxury SUVs are wrapped in a special color-changing wrap, often referred to as a "psychedelic coating", which changes the color of the exterior of the car depending on the intensity and angle of reflection of light hitting the surface of the car. This makes the car look impressive overall, especially when driving on rain-soaked asphalt. When viewed from a distance, the Cullinan owned by the Ambani family is dark purple, then gradually turns a beautiful blue as it approaches.

Billionaire Mukesh Ambani often travels around the city in a simple Mercedes-Benz S680 Guard, perfectly suited to his personality. The Indian billionaire is famous for his casual, rustic style. He usually dresses casually and is not a fan of any fashion brand. In life, he also likes to experiment with all kinds of food from fancy restaurants to roadside stalls. ‏

His bulletproof Mercedes limo is said to be worth $1.2 million (in Indian Rupees) and is built to VPAM VR 10 specifications. This is the highest ballistic certification for civilian vehicles. ‏

Interestingly, the Ambanis own at least 3 Rolls-Royce Cullinans, including a bespoke version that is said to be India's most expensive car. It's adorned with a special Tuscan Sun Color, which alone is said to be worth $120,000.
