Damage Control or a Hand in Each Finger?

While it is not clear whether Anant was there to officially lend his support to the campaign, many on Twitter saw this as a damage control exercise after father, Mukesh, created ripples in the political world by his open endorsement of Milind Deora, the Congress Lok Sabha candidate from South Mumbai.

Here is again an attempt to counter balance political image. Mukesh Ambani endroses Congress and Son Anant Ambani comes to cheer BJP. Ambanis are good in Business. https://t.co/NizURBBqzS
