Mukesh Ambani becomes grandfather as Akash and Shloka welcome baby boy

Billionaire Mukesh Ambani on Thursday became a grandfather after a son was born to his eldest son. "Shloka and Akash Ambani became proud parents of a baby boy today in Mumbai," a statement from the Ambani family spokesperson said.

Akash married diamantaire Russell Mehta's daughter Shloka in March, 2019. Ambani, 63, and his wife Nita have three children - twins Akash and Isha, 29 years old, and Anant, 25. The Ambani family is said to have returned to Mumbai just before Diwali last month after spending considerable time abroad.

A picture is now going viral on social media where Mukesh Ambani is seen posing with the newborn.
