Nita Ambani once shared who she’d date if not Mukesh Ambani

India's richest person Mukesh Ambani and his family never fails to catch people's attention-- be it their larger-than-life lifestyle or their celebrity-studded lavish weddings. And now, an old clip of Mukesh and Nita Ambani is doing the rounds on social media. In the clip, which is taken from Mukesh and Nita Ambani's interview with Simi Garewal years ago, the power-couple give a glimpse of their bond. It also shows how humour helps in keeping their relationship going strong over the years.

In a candid chat with Simi Garewal, Nita Ambani is asked about her choice of men. Simi jokingly asks Nita to name a person she would like to go on a date with, if not her husband Mukesh. To this, Nita Ambani nonchalantly replied, "Bill Clinton!". While it was said in jest, it did catch everyone present on the show off-guard. For the unversed Bill Clinton was the former US President, and during his time in the office, he was much adored by people across the world.

Listening to his wife's response, Mukesh Ambani playfully added, “If Nita wants to go on a date with Clinton, then Simi, I would like to go on a date with you!” Simi then cheekily agreed to Mukesh Ambani’s joke, bringing a laugh to everyone's face.

Mukesh and Nita Ambani have been married for over 40 years and their playful exchange of wit and words in this particular clip shows how friendship and humours helps the power couple bond and keep the magic alive in their relationship. This old clip, which is now viral on the internet, also gives a glimpse of Mukesh and Nita Ambani's lighter and human side, as a couple.

For the unversed, Mukesh and Nita Ambani were introduced to each other through Mukesh Ambani's father Dhirubhai Ambani, who had noticed Nita at a Bharatanatyam performance. After a few meetings with each other, Mukesh decided to pop the question to Nita. However, being a romantic at heart, Mukesh decided to propose to Nita while on a drive with her on Mumbai's busy streets. He popped the question while waiting at a traffic signal, and didn't start the car until she said "yes". Mukesh and Nita Ambani got married in 1985, and the rest, as they say, is history. Today the Ambanis are one of the most popular and richest families in the world.
