Meet Nita Ambani's lesser-known sister, Mamta Dalal

Nita Ambani needs no introduction. She is not just the wife of India's richest person Mukesh Ambani, but she is also the Founder and Chairperson of Reliance Foundation, Founder and Chairperson of Nita Mukesh Ambani Cultural Centre (NMACC), and Founder and Chairperson of Dhirubhai Ambani International School (DAIS). But did you know that Nita Ambani also has a sister, who stays much away from the spotlight? Read more about her here.

All about Mamta Dalal

While Nita Ambani is much in the news, her younger sister, named Mamta Dalal, stays away from the spotlight. Born in a decently-comfortable Gujarati family to Ravindrabhai Dalal and Purnima Dalal, Mamta Dalal is four years younger to Nita Ambani. Her father, Ravindrabhai Dalal, passed away in 2014. She is often seen at the Ambanis' functions, along with her mother Purnima Dalal.

Mamta Dalal works in the field of education. She works as a teacher to primary class students at the Dhirubhai Ambani International School and is also a part of the management committee at the school. As per reports, Mamta Dalal has taught Shah Rukh Khan's daughter Suhana Khan, Sachin Tendulkar's children, among other celebrity kids. But in an interview, Mamta Dalal had shared that regardless of her teaching celebrity kids, all students are equal to her. Apart from this, she also organises workshops and camps for children.

It is noted that before getting married to Mukesh Ambani, Nita worked as a teacher. In fact, she continued to work as a teacher for a couple of years after getting married as well. As per reports, Nita Ambani and Mamta Dalal's grandfather was a professor of French and so, growing up they had a very studious atmosphere at home which in a way shaped them to become teachers in their own rights.

Nita Ambani and her sister Mamta Dalal are said to share a close bond. A few months ago, Mamta Dalal was spotted wearing Nita Ambani's Gucci co-ord set at Isha Ambani's twin's birthday celebrations. This clearly shows the close bond Nita Ambani and her sister Mamta Dalal share! The picture was shared by popular social media star, Orhan Awatramani aka Orry on his Instagram story.
