In the glamorous world of the Ambanis, where fame and wealth dominate, Deepti Salgaokar often goes unnoticed. While her brothers Mukesh and Anil Ambani have been in the spotlight for years, Deepti has chosen to stay out of the public eye. Despite her modest demeanor, she has a fascinating story of love, family bonds, and unexpected connections.
But recently Deepti was seen in Anant-Radhika’s sangeet ceremony and since then people are eager to know who is she.
Deepti Salgaokar, the youngest daughter of the renowned Dhirubhai Ambani, was born into the prominent Ambani family. Growing up in a home filled with dreams and ambition, she shared a special bond with her late father. This deep connection with Dhirubhai influenced her life, making her actively involved in everything she pursued.
Deepti’s husband, Dattaraj Salgaokar, established Sunaparanta to preserve Goa’s culture and heritage. Deepti Salgaokar serves as the vice-chairperson and is a member of the advisory board of this institution.
Deepti’s love story is intertwined with friendship and destiny. In old Mumbai, the Ambanis lived on the 22nd floor of Usha Kiran, the city’s only skyscraper, while the Salgaonkars, a notable business family led by Vasudev Salgaonkar, lived on the 14th floor. Dhirubhai Ambani and Vasudev Salgaonkar, both with humble beginnings and entrepreneurial drive, formed a strong friendship that included their families.
After Vasudev Salgaonkar’s sudden death, Deepti and his son, Duttaraj Salgaokar, formed a new bond. Love grew between the families, and Deepti and Raj fell for each other at first sight. After dating for five years, they married on December 31, 1983, and began their life together in Goa.
Her Connection With Nirav Modi
Deepti Salgaokar’s life may seem removed from high-profile scandals, but fate had other plans. Her daughter, Isheta Salgaokar, married Neeshal Modi, the younger brother of the troubled tycoon Nirav Modi, in 2016, linking Deepti’s family to a major financial scandal. However, Isheta and Neeshal later divorced, and she fell in love with Atulya Mittal, the founder of Nexzu Mobility and nephew of business tycoon Lakshmi Niwas Mittal.
