This is my father, Shri Mukesh bhai Ambani, a man of vision, a man of resilience and a man of determination for whom there is no greater duty than Reliance, for whom nothing is greater than his own father’s dreams, and for whom values are the compass, guiding every decision, every effort and every triumph.”
