Indian onlookers and foreign tourists will have a new palace to gaze at. If only the $2 billion went to more fruitful investment India would have benefitted more.

It will be a great irony to the foreigner after the house is built. When he enters Mumbai the first sight of life he sees is in Dharavi from where you think that this country can't be rich at all. Then he will be seeing a house like this where 2 Billion $ is spent on one house, maybe for a family of four or five? India is really full of ironies.

This is just another face of India, a country where 35 per cent of population lives on less than $1 a day. In Bangladesh the ratio is 36 per cent and in Pakistan it is 17 per cent. So what 35 crore Indians live a day on Rs 39, We have Mukesh Ambani who is making his residence with a cost of $2 bn. Congratulations to all Indians, we have the biggest gap between Poor and Rich.

Sumit has pointed it out...the gap..the widening gap between poor people and rich people in India. The Rich is becoming richer, it is unbelievable that more than 30 crore of Indians earn $1 dollar a day and one Indian is the 5th richest man on the earth. Yes, India is the land of magicians.

...and he splashes it on a 27 storey ’home’ that costs $2 billion and lives in it with his five and how many children again???? yet someone in Africa or India will go to sleep in a shack, with nothing in their stomachs... hw ironic...if Mukesh decided to donate $100 million every year to the poor in Africa or India, how many schools would be built, how many dispensaries would be spread in rural areas, howmany roads would be contructed, how many malaria nets would be distributed to combat malaria...the list is endless as Mukesh build his ’home’....

That's a great achievement by Mukesh Ambani. He knows how his father made money from a humble beginning to give this behemoth of a business empire to his sons. Reliance Industries have also made commoners millionaires. This house is a tribute really.

If Mukesh Ambani has the money to burn to keep him cozy and warm I don't see any harm in it. After all why is he making all the money that we can't make but can only dream of making? It is his life, it is his money. So let him be as he wishes to be. Who are we to say anything?
