Deepti Salgaocar, the youngest daughter of Dhirubhai and Kokilaben Ambani, indeed leads a more private life compared to her siblings, Mukesh and Anil Ambani. Despite being part of one of India’s most influential families, she has maintained a low profile and focused on her personal and family life. Deepti Salgaocar’s strong bond with her father, Dhirubhai Ambani, played a pivotal role in shaping her personality and approach to life.

Deepti Salgaocar is married to businessman Dattaraj Salgaocar, a childhood friend of her brothers, Mukesh and Anil Ambani. The couple has two children, a son named Vikram Salgaocar and a daughter named Isheta Salgaocar.

Deepti’s love story is a beautiful tale of destiny intertwined with friendship. In the Mumbai of bygone days, the Ambani family lived on the 22nd floor of Usha Kiran, the city’s only skyscraper at the time. Just below, on the 14th floor, resided the Salgaonkar family, led by Vasudev Salgaonkar, a prominent businessman. Sharing similar humble beginnings and an entrepreneurial spirit, Dhirubhai Ambani and Vasudev Salgaonkar formed a deep bond that naturally extended to their families.

After Vasudev Salgaonkar’s passing, Deepti Ambani and his son, Dattaraj Salgaonkar, developed a deep connection. Their love story blossomed over five years of courtship, culminating in their marriage on December 31, 1983. The couple began their life together in Goa.

Dattaraj Salgaocar, known as Raj, is a successful businessman and Managing Director of the V.M. Salgaocar Group of Companies, continuing his father’s legacy. He also owns Goa’s renowned Salgaocar Football Club. With a degree in Production Engineering from V.J.T.I, Mumbai, and an MBA in Finance from Wharton, Raj has built a distinguished career in business.

Dattaraj Salgaocar, Deepti’s husband, founded Sunaparanta, an institution dedicated to preserving Goa’s culture and heritage. Deepti plays an active role as its vice chairperson and advisory board member.

“Sunaparanta Goa Centre for the Arts was founded in 2009 as a not-for-profit, process-based arts foundation by Dipti and Dattaraj V. Salgaocar with the vision to nurture, preserve and promote the artistic and cultural legacies of Goa through collections and archives; to encourage, sponsor and promote innovative work in the visual arts to serve as a bridge between the Goan art community and the national and international art communities; to provide mentoring and resource support to art students and others who want to learn about art,” reads the official website of Sunaparanta. Deepti Salgaonkar was the first in the Ambani family to have a love marriage.

Deepti Salgaocar’s life drew public attention when her daughter, Isheta, married Neeshal Modi, brother of Nirav Modi, who was later implicated in a major financial fraud involving Punjab National Bank. The couple eventually divorced. After her divorce, Isheta Salgaoncar married Atulya Mittal, founder of Nexzu Mobility and nephew of steel magnate Lakshmi Niwas Mittal.
