On Thursday, Reliance Industries Chairman Mukesh Ambani became a proud grandfather as his eldest son Akash and daughter-in-law Shloka were blessed with a baby boy.

"Shloka and Akash Ambani became proud parents of a baby boy today in Mumbai," a statement from the Ambani family spokesperson said. The statement also added that both mother and son are doing well and that the new arrival has brought immense joy to the entire Mehta and Ambani families.

Akash Ambani, who is a director at Jio, married Russell Mehta's daughter Shloka Mehta in 2019. Akash and Shloka went to school together at the Dhirubhai Ambani International School and have known each other since childhood.
