亚洲首富的位置从来不缺人坐。前有阿里巴巴创始人马云，后有“大自然的搬运工”钟睒睒，中间则是另外一位常年霸占首位的印度首富——穆克什·安巴尼。
两年前，穆克什为女儿伊莎举办了一场极尽奢侈的世纪婚礼，至今为人津津乐道。婚礼期间，诸多政界名流、世界巨星、宝莱坞一线明星都到场支持，它也直接奠定了许多人对于这一家“挥金如土”的印象。
在印度男女地位严重不平等的社会风气下，穆克什虽然拥有数不尽的财富，但他并没有混乱的私生活，和妻子妮塔相互扶持35年，不仅保障了对方最好的物质条件，他们的爱情故事也可以说是豪门届的一股清流。今天我们就跟着 Norah 老师（私人微信：zao84an67in）和外教 Colin 老师，一起来聊聊亚洲首富穆克什·安巴尼的故事，并学习有关的英语表达吧⬇️
