Before the luxury of Antilia: An inside look at Mukesh and Anil AmbaniĄ¯s former family home
Before moving into Antilia in 2011, Mukesh Ambani and his family lived in the same building as Anil AmbaniĄ¯s family. Both brothers hold their mother Kokilaben in high regard, who also resided there. The brothers once shared Sea Wind, an entire building in MumbaiĄ¯s Cuffe Parade.
The Sea Wind, Mumbai: Reliance Industries chairman Mukesh Ambani continues to grow his business. At 67, he has partnered with several international companies to launch services in different sectors. Reliance, led by Ambani, is one of India's largest companies. Nita and Mukesh AmbaniĄ¯s home, Antilia, is perhaps the most famous private residence in the country.

In another era, Mukesh and Anil Ambani shared their family home. Both brothers were being groomed to take over their father Dhirubhai AmbaniĄ¯s empire until a public falling out after his death in 2002 split the Reliance empire in half. Over the past 20 years, their fortunes have diverged sharply. Mukesh Ambani has become one of the richest people globally, while Anil Ambani, despite claims to a UK court that his net worth was Ą°zero,Ąą has seen his wealth diminish significantly from billionaire to millionaire status.

The brothers once shared Sea Wind, an entire building in MumbaiĄ¯s Cuffe Parade. Unlike the lavish Antilia, Sea Wind is more modest at 19 stories high. It served as the Ambani residence for a considerable period and was their father Dhirubhai AmbaniĄ¯s home.
Sea Wind is far less grand than Antilia, lacking ultramodern features like high-speed elevators or snowflake-spitting rooms. Each family member had a spacious floor to themselves, including the children. Today, Anil Ambani and his family reside in Sea Wind, where Kokilaben also chose to stay rather than moving into Antilia.
