Asia's Richest Man Mukesh Ambani's Wife Steps Out With 'Popcorn' Bag
The internet is buzzing about the latest public appearance of Nita Ambani, the wife of Asia's richest man Mukesh Ambani. Nita, 60, showed up at the opening of the Tira cosmetics flagship store in Mumbai, which is headed by her daughter Isha, and made a splash with her handbag - a Chanel minaudière from the fall-winter 2024/25 collection. Although the website states that the price of the accessory is "upon request", it costs almost $30,000.
When the photos from the event appeared online, everyone started discussing Nita Ambani's look, as it surprised many: she usually appears in public with more "serious" accessories - for example, with a Hermès Birkin bag encrusted with diamonds, but this time she opted for a more "playful" look.
The Chanel faux-material bag features pink enamel with the words "Pop Coco" (a play on both the brand's founder Coco Chanel and the word "popcorn") and is topped with a faux pearl and gold-tone metal body. The Popcorn minaudière measures 16 x 11 cm and has one compartment that can hold small items like keys, a few cards, or lipstick—an iPhone won't fit in there.
The Ambani family often finds itself in the media spotlight for their lavish lifestyle. In the summer of 2024, the wedding of billionaire Anant Ambani's eldest son attracted public and media attention, becoming one of the most talked about events of the year. The lavish celebration was held in a luxurious style, with the participation of Bollywood stars and world celebrities, which emphasized the status of the family in Indian society.
The Ambani family's net worth is estimated at over $80 billion, making them one of the richest families in the world.
