Mukesh Ambani’s new house – Antilla
Thought it will be interesting to cover the house being constructed in Mumbai’s Altamount Road by the world’s richest man – Mukesh Ambani. Yep, he’s officially the richest now with the skyrocketing share prices of RIL.
The house (called Antilla) is being valued at Rupees 4000 crores and will be 173 metres tall. Normally that is the equivalent of a 60 storeyed tower, but in this case each floor is more than twice the height of a normal floor, with the result that the building will only have 27 floors when completed. Given the prevailing state of skyscrapers in Mumbai, this building will be more than twice as tall as the earlier tallest buiilding. The view from the top will be breathtaking, no doubt.
Some other absurd facts about this ‘house’..
- 3 helipads on top. Mumbai corporation has not given permission for making this operational yet.
- Hanging gardens within the structure
- Swimming pool within the structure
- A two storey Health centre
- Parking space for 168 cars (6 floors). I initially thought that meant there will be a mini office in the building but apparently that is not the case. All these cars will belong to Mukesh Ambani! Just in case you are interested, he drives a 5 crore Maybach now.
- A floor exclusively for servicing these automobiles within the building.
- A floor for Home theatre – sitting capacity of 50
Most absurd of all, the house will have a staff of 600 (sic) to do the maintenance activities. That gives a ratio of 1:100 for people living in the house and those who are paid to take care of it. The six lucky (?) ones are the man himself, his wife, his 3 children and his mother Kokilaben. The family will be moving in from their old home ‘Sea Wind’ which was a 14 floor building at Cuffe Parade.
In fairness, Mukesh bought the property in 2002. So he has not spent anywhere close to the $1 billion people are now valuing the property at. And it is not just him, plenty of other rich tycoons have indulged in their residences. Two people who immediately come to mind are Mittal & Gates.
UK-based steel tycoon Lakshmi Mittal (he is still an Indian citizen though) bought the most expensive house in London last year, paying £60m for a place in Kensington Palace Gardens.Microsoft founder Bill Gates had his house built as technology showpiece several years back. The house is reputed to have cost upwards of $100 million. I will write about this particular property sometime in the future. It is much more interesting than the Ambani house, because Gates tried to implement many new, yet to be proven technologies in his blueprint.

Totally waste of money, he wanna show his wealth to world and feel himself proud, but its not good, they are many poor people are loosing their lifes every day without food and home, many childrens miss their childhoods, many unemployees are irritating about their lifes, many parents reach to orphan homes,
if the indians built these kind of houses it may make happy their family, but if any rich man helps to poor it makes gods happy, you cant take your wealth after death, because of this u may face many troubles, be aware of god, he is watching you, dont do these kind of stupid things,
i think he is a big fool guy
hola i hope r you fine100y
its interesting…………………..
its looking good… and its really waste of money…. because many people of india are suffering from hungry.. atleast in his asset if he given 0.1% of money to below poverty line that is satisfied to that people….

i think GOD gives life us for once time .in which we will enjoy every part of moment of life ……
which one hv enough..why he can’t go for his interest /..
According to my view Mr. Ambani not waste the money he spend the money for his family, for acheived his big Dream……….
If someone blame him that India is poor and many people of india are suffering from hungry. I ask only one question how much they donate for the same in his/her entire lfie???????????
i hope that i one day i wiil make a house like you
I think n some part Bunny s ri8. But god has given wealthy life to him so he must enjoy bcoz of everyone he dont want to suffer. i think he s also helping poor people too.
kya mukesh bhai thora garib par bhi dhayan de
there are a lot of poor peoples without a shelter……………
pls help them too to have a shelter…………..
surely god will bless you yaar…………..
I personal think that whoever blame mukesh ambani for his antilia house that shows us the jealousy of those people who can’t able to earn this type of fortune and the question of poor people so, this is the responsbility of government if they living without shelter so ask the politician why they don’t leave free air traveling free home for living and pay a tax .
this is india and people always blame business this is show communist mentality.
Mr Ambani
It is good that you have got now the world’s most expensive home we the people of India congratulate you , now this is the time to think for your motherland too..think for a Minuit please…
YOU HAVE STRENGTH TO DO ANYTHING WITH YOUR MONEY,,, BUT FIRST TRY TO BUILD BETTER COUNTRY & THEN YOUR HOUSE IN THAT BETTER COUNTRY.. A GOOD PERSON COMES TO KNOW FROM HIS WORK NOT FROM HIS NAME.
this is unmodertable creation by Ambani.this just a ……showing money power.I request to Mr. Ambani Kindly look at poorest people in our motherland.
Kindy help the poor, money will go off but your kindness will remain in pepople’s heart… If you are an Indian and really is than you will surely will do this…
