Expensive gifts are commonplace among the ultra-rich, but even the most lavish presents can leave the world in awe when it comes to the Ambani family. Recently, as Anant Ambani, the youngest scion of Mukesh Ambani’s empire, celebrated his 29th birthday, the festivities were nothing short of spectacular.
At a star-studded party in Jamnagar, attended by Salman Khan and B Praak, Anant Ambani was treated to a birthday bash befitting his royal lineage. However, amidst the glitz and glamour, a heartfelt gesture from businessman Bharat Mehra captured the occasion’s essence.
Taking to Instagram, Bharat Mehra shared a picture of himself alongside Anant Ambani, presenting the birthday boy with a remarkable gift: a painting by MF Husain, the legendary Indian artist renowned for his unparalleled mastery. What makes this gift even more extraordinary is the canvas, which is crafted on Socotra dragon Yemeni tree wood, adding an extra layer of exclusivity and luxury.
The painting depicts Lord Ganesha, the revered deity, playing a traditional Indian musical instrument, showcasing MF Husain’s distinctive style and artistic prowess. As Bharat Mehra shared the image and warm birthday wishes for Anant Ambani, it quickly went viral, garnering nearly 1.7 lakh likes and a flood of comments from admirers.
Moreover, the significance of this gift is heightened by recent news of another MF Husain artwork, Voices, which sold for a staggering Rs 18.47 crore at an online auction, setting a new record for the highest price ever fetched by any of the artist’s works in a public domain sale. Considering this, it’s plausible that the painting Mehra gifted to Anant Ambani also holds a value in crores. With a price tag of crores, this gift by Bharat Mehra is a token of appreciation and a symbol of friendship and admiration.
