Tina Ambani to buy 100m luxury yacht for Rs200 crore

Mumbai: Tina Ambani, wife of billionaire Anil Ambani, who leads the Reliance Anil Dhirubhai Ambani Group, or R-Adag, is buying a yacht worth nearly Rs200 crore ($46.8 million).

The former Bollywood actor has chosen a 100m-long yacht that can host at least 20 people besides the crew, said a person familiar with the development. She has also applied for membership at the 161-year-old, Mumbai-based Royal Bombay Yacht Club, or RBYC.

An email Mint sent to the executive assistant of Tina Ambani remained unanswered and an R-Adag spokesperson said he could not comment.

“She had applied for a membership some time back," said RBYC secretary Suresh Kumar. “We are processing her request and she will get a membership shortly. However, I am not aware about her yacht-buying plans."

An RBYC membership enables an individual or company to enjoy various sailing and training programmes the club undertakes. The club also offers maintenance support and anchor space.

Ambani’s yacht is “special." “She is looking at a larger version of a luxury boat that can be used for long cruises with multiple cabins and plush interiors," said the same person who did not wish to be identified.

Going by the technical specifications revealed by this person, Ambani’s yacht will be like Mallya’s 95m Indian Empress, which is powered by three 10,000hp engines.

Incidentally, Anil Ambani’s estranged elder brother and chairman of India’s largest private company Reliance Industries Ltd, Mukesh Ambani, had gifted his wife Nita Ambani a luxurious Airbus 319 corporate jet worth nearly Rs250 crore last year.

Last week, Forbes magazine named Tina Ambani as one of the 10 billionaires’ wives who have impressive independent credentials. In 2004, she founded the Harmony for Silvers Foundation, a non-government organization that works towards improving the life of old people.

The Harmony Interactive Centre, operating since May 2004, provides an opportunity for senior citizens or “silvers" to interact with their peers in a space of their own and also aims at educating the general public about issues the elderly face.

Her husband, Anil Ambani, is the sixth wealthiest person in the world and founder of R-Adag that has a net worth of Rs55,000 crore.

“I cannot comment on Tina Ambani buying a super yacht. If it is a super yacht, it will be an exceptional buy," said Shakeel Kudrolli, managing director of Acquasail Pvt. Ltd that represents Chantiers Beneteau SA, a leading yacht company.

“But I can only say that India is increasingly catching up with the US and Europe when it comes to buying specialized yachts. It is not uncommon that high networth individuals buying yachts after owning other premium products such as a BMW and other pricy possessions," he said.

Kudrolli, who has been into sailing for the past 35 years and launched the part ownership concept in yachts, said that companies are buying more sophisticated sports-cum-leisure boats to offer special hospitality to their premium customers instead of taking them to conventional five-star hotels.

“Some of the corporations are buying yachts for meetings and leisure activities for internal teams, while some are using sailing as team-building exercise," he said.

Rihanna came out of 'retirement' for the Ambani wedding concert and a hefty payday

• Rihanna performed at the private pre-wedding bash of the Indian billionaire Mukesh Ambani's son.
• It was her first full live show in almost eight years, not counting the 2023 Super Bowl.
• There's been rampant speculation on how much she was paid, with estimates upwards of $5 million.

It's the concert we all wished we were at but sadly had to watch through grainy phone-camera footage: Rihanna's one-night-only comeback.

The 36-year-old singer performed her first full live show in almost eight years — not counting her 15-minute slot at the 2023 Super Bowl LVII Halftime show and her 2023 Academy Award performance — at the pre-wedding party of Anant Ambani , the youngest son of Indian multibillionaire Mukesh Ambani, and his soon-to-be wife, Radhika Merchant.

For the lucky 1,200-plus guests — including Mark Zuckerberg, Ivanka Trump , and Bollywood stars — the singer took to the stage in Jamnagar, India, to deliver a concert-length 19-song set, including hits such as her career-launching "Umbrella" and the No.1 hits "Diamonds" and "Work," NME reported.

RIHANNAAAA pic.twitter.com/bdxrSd32D9 — Rihanna Online (@RihannaOnlineBR) March 2, 2024

The show also included live renditions of the songs "We Found Love," "Stay," "Rude Boy," and "All Of The Lights," and ended with the whole Ambani family joining Rihanna onstage.

"I'm here tonight in honor of Anant and Radhika. Thank you for having me here. God bless your union. I wish you all the best. Congratulations," she said to the couple, The National reported.

Rihanna could have received a payday of somewhere between $5 and $9 million, estimates say

There's been rampant speculation on how much Rihanna earned for her performance. Anonymous sources told India Today that her performance fee could be somewhere between $8 and $9 million.

The Daily Mail estimated a starting price of about $6 million for the gig.

Both wouldn't be entirely far-fetched guesses if you consider that the pre-wedding celebration budget may be about $120 million, the Daily Mail claimed, citing unnamed sources.

The Ambani family spent nearly $100 million on the wedding of daughter Isha Ambani and her husband, Anand Piramal, The Guardian reported.

There's no question that the three-day bash — ongoing until Monday — is wildly extravagant, even by the standards of Indian weddings .

The elder Ambani, the chair of the Fortune 500 company Reliance Industries, has an estimated net worth of $113 billion , and it's clear from the drone show , decor, flowers, and festivities still to come — including the wedding itself, which is scheduled for July — that the family spared no expense.

Booking megastars is also something the family has done before. Beyoncé performed at Isha's wedding in 2018.

A year later, in 2019, Coldplay's front man, Chris Martin, and The Chainsmokers entertained guests attending Akash Ambani — Anant Ambani's older brother — and Shloka Mehta's pre-wedding bash in Switzerland. The couple also had Adam Levine serenade them at their post-wedding bash.

Watch: Rihanna is the richest female musician in the world. Here's how she makes and spends her $600 million.

Ambani's Jets, Mittal's Yachts: Luxurious Rides Of The Ultra-Rich

Who Owns What

Private yachts and customised planes. Check out the travel modes of the jet set that double up as meeting venues, party hangouts and spots to host special occasions. For those Indians — and those with desi roots — who are counted among the world’s wealthy, island hopping in Europe aboard their customised 200-feet yacht or taking off in their bespoke jet across the continent are but a way of putting a monogram on their commute. Take a look at the rides of the jet set:

Lakshmi Mittal’s Amevi

In 2014, this London-based billionaire was spotted relaxing on the Greek island of Mykonos, dressed casually in a white T-shirt and baggy shorts. A newspaper report speculated that while Mittal lounged on the beach alongside other tourists, his 262-feet-long yacht Amevi was parked in the waters nearby. Some amenities on board: Sun decks, a heated swimming pool, a cinema, a gym, a massage room, a hairdressing salon as well as a unique, stabilised pool table to name a few.

Mukesh Ambani’s Boeing Business Jet

More than a decade ago, it was reported that Ambani gifted his wife, Nita, a private jet on her 44th birthday. It was said at the time that this jet was “custom-fitted with an office and a cabin with game consoles, music systems, satellite television and wireless communication. It also has a master bedroom, a bathroom with a range of showers and a bar with mood lighting”. As his personal ride, Ambani reportedly favours a Boeing Business Jet. “Most often, they want access to the same amenities in the air.” That’s how the airplane maker describes their customer’s requirement, a.k.a, a flying home, as that’s what’s wanted.

Ravi Ruia’s Sunrays

“The ultimate guest and owner’s yacht.” That’s how the captain of Sunrays, delivered in March 2010 describes it. According to a description of the yacht available on the Oceanco’s website, “The upper deck is given over to the owner’s suite and an adjacent VIP suite that can be combined to create one expansive living area. Both suites have fold-down sea balconies. The owner’s exterior foredeck hosts a whirlpool and sunbathing area. The remainder of the yacht’s accommodations for up to 16 guests is on the main deck with one VIP stateroom and four guest cabins.” The large dining room can be converted into a video conference room with the optional use of the adjacent library. Foldable sea balconies provide guests unimpeded views while dining.

Kumar Mangalam Birla’s Cessna Citation

A blog published by an apparel brand, owned by the Aditya Birla Group, documented the private jets of India’s rich and famous. The listicle included the jets owned by Birla, the Group’s chairman. It said, “Few people know that this sharp, business-minded entrepreneur also has a sweet tooth, when it comes to sweet flying machines, with his Gulf Stream (G100) and Cessna Citation...It’s believed that Citations are the world’s most established, well-liked and most trusted fleet of business jets. The jet has high-tech design of pilot-friendly flight decks and luxury cabin interiors. Birla is often spotted taking a ride in his luxurious aircrafts.”

Sunil Vaswani’s Platinum

This Dubai-based billionaire’s yacht is apparently a fixture in the Mediterranean and was even spotted at the French Riviera around the time that the Cannes Film Festival was held this year, with others in the list for company. Vaswani, who is considered to be one of the richest Indians in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries, was once described as he “who lives on multiple continents and sails the Mediterranean each summer in an all-purpose luxury yacht”. The logo of the Stallion Group, which he heads, adorns the yacht.

Ratan Tata’s Dassault Falcon 2000

Tata’s love for aviation is an open secret. But he is perhaps one of the handful of billionaires in the world who not only owns a private jet, but even flies one. “A lot of people know that Ratan Tata owns a Dassault Falcon 2000 private jet but, what they do not know is that since Tata is a trained pilot, he even flies his own private jet and other jets owned by the Tata group,” said an earlier report.

Reuben Brothers’ Siren

“While watching the boat slowly taking shape in Rendsburg, we suddenly became aware of how seductive and mysterious she seemed. We just knew then that we had to call her SIREN and we are absolutely delighted with the result.” That’s the quote attributed to the owner of the 241 feet-long Siren, on the website of Nobiskrug, the German company that built the yacht. Presumably the owner quoted in question is either David Reuben or his brother Simon. Commonly referred to as the Reuben Brothers, they trace their roots back to Mumbai, and are counted among the UK’s richest individuals. Theirs is an award-winning superyacht with a foldable helicopter platform, that can double up as “a sundeck, a dance floor or a stage”.

Adar Poonawalla’s Gulfstream G550

Earlier this year, this scion became the first Indian to take delivery of a fully customised, ACH145 helicopter by Airbus. While his new ride, with a seating capacity of eight is great for covering relatively shorter distances, his Gulfstream G550 aircraft is reportedly his transportation of choice for long-haul journeys. In an earlier interview, Poonawalla had said, “With a 13-hour range, it (his jet) can take me to anywhere in the world with a single halt.” The report further added, “The plane can also come in handy when he (Poonawalla) craves continental food and in case he wants to fly in Michelin star chefs to cook for his friends and him.”

Coordinates of Elektrostal in decimal degrees

Coordinates of elektrostal in degrees and decimal minutes, utm coordinates of elektrostal, geographic coordinate systems.

WGS 84 coordinate reference system is the latest revision of the World Geodetic System, which is used in mapping and navigation, including GPS satellite navigation system (the Global Positioning System).

Geographic coordinates (latitude and longitude) define a position on the Earth’s surface. Coordinates are angular units. The canonical form of latitude and longitude representation uses degrees (°), minutes (′), and seconds (″). GPS systems widely use coordinates in degrees and decimal minutes, or in decimal degrees.

Latitude varies from −90° to 90°. The latitude of the Equator is 0°; the latitude of the South Pole is −90°; the latitude of the North Pole is 90°. Positive latitude values correspond to the geographic locations north of the Equator (abbrev. N). Negative latitude values correspond to the geographic locations south of the Equator (abbrev. S).

Longitude is counted from the prime meridian ( IERS Reference Meridian for WGS 84) and varies from −180° to 180°. Positive longitude values correspond to the geographic locations east of the prime meridian (abbrev. E). Negative longitude values correspond to the geographic locations west of the prime meridian (abbrev. W).

UTM or Universal Transverse Mercator coordinate system divides the Earth’s surface into 60 longitudinal zones. The coordinates of a location within each zone are defined as a planar coordinate pair related to the intersection of the equator and the zone’s central meridian, and measured in meters.

Elevation above sea level is a measure of a geographic location’s height. We are using the global digital elevation model GTOPO30 .
