Who rules the city of Mumbai? Well, is there any doubt if we say it's the Ambanis? From sports to transportation, Bollywood to telecom, you would take a few minutes if we would ask you what do the Ambanis do not own, right? One of the most valuable assets for the Ambanis is the cricket franchise, the Mumbai Indians team. Mukesh Ambani and Nita Ambani's Reliance Industries own the most valued IPL team, and guess what? Yesterday (May 12, 2019) it was the finals of IPL 2019 and Mumbai Indians won the title for the 4th time beating Chennai Super Kings by 1 run.

IPL 2019 final was held at Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium, Hyderabad and many celebrities and VVIPs had flown down to the city to watch the MI vs CSK tussle. And among those many were the Ambani clan which included the owner- Nita Ambani, her two sons- Akash Ambani and Anant Ambani, Akash's wife- Shloka Mehta and Anant's ladylove- Radhika Merchant. Mumbai Indians' captain Rohit Sharma's wife, Ritika Sajdeh was also present.
On the morning of the final, we were first smitten by a video which had gone viral on social media, in which we could see the oh-so-beautiful, Radhika Merchant, snapped outside the Mumbai Airport with her beau, Anant Ambani, all set to leave for Hyderabad. Take a look:

Speaking of how she got lucky to have the support of their families, Shloka Mehta was once quoted as saying, “Despite years and busy schedules, we have always found ways to stay connected. Akash is incredibly grounded, and we share a bond based on meaning and memories. We don't just get along - we also support each other's hopes and aspirations and are determined to build a sense of purpose into our lives together. We are lucky to have a love that began with being best friends and luckier still to have such supportive families.”
