(now the state of Gujarat, India) to Hirachand Gordhandhas Ambani and Jamnaben in a Gujarati family of modest means. Hirachand Gordhandhas Ambani was a village school teacher with little income

When Jamnaben once asked Dhirubhai and Ramnikbhai to help his father by earning money, he angrily replied "Why do you keep screaming for money? I will make heaps of money one day". During weekends, he began setting up onion/potato fries stall at village fairs and made extra money which he gave to his mother.

Later on he dropped out from school and went to Eden and after coming to India, he founded Reliance Industries. Today his two sons – Mukesh and Anil Ambani are Forbes Billionaires and world’s one of the most richest persons.
