My reason and inspiration to lose weight and stay fit is my youngest son, Anant, who is fighting obesity. I would like to be an example for him.

I am too much of a team member to be separated from my team.

I dont like talking about any projects till they solidify and take off.

Wealth and power don’t go together. Power cannot be brokered. To me, power is responsibility.

I had my children after eight years of marriage. It was a dream come true. I still pinch myself.

My father-in-law saw me at a dance performance. The next day, I got a phone call, and the caller said, 'I'm Dhirubhai Ambani... may I talk to Nita?' I said, 'It's a wrong number' and put down the phone. Then he called again... and I said, 'If you're Dhirubhai Ambani, then I'm Elizabeth Taylor.'

My background is that I came from a middle class family, and I think those values stay where ever you go.
