Warring Ambani bros may come together for prayer meet

MUMBAI: Their fight, despite a family settlement of June 2005, may have reached the Supreme Court but Ambani brothers Mr Mukesh and Mr Anil are expected to come together once again - this time for a prayer meeting on their father Dhirubhai's death annive rsary.

The country's richest siblings may join their mother Ms Kokilaben at the family residence 'Sea Wind' on Dhirubhai's seventh death anniversary tomorrow, family sources indicated.

It was Ms Kokilaben who had negotiated a settlement between the brothers after they began fighting bitterly inside and outside courts just two years after Dhirubhai passed away in 2002.

Ms Kokilaben, along with her two daughters and sons, is expected to lead the prayers. The brothers would be coming together just days ahead of the mentioning of petitions of Anil and Mukesh's group firms by the Supreme Court challenging the Bombay High Court judgment on a gas supply dispute.

Interestingly, the Bombay High Court while asking Mukesh led Reliance Industries to supply gas to Anil's group firm RNRL at a price much lower than that fixed by the government had asked the brothers to go back to their mother in case they failed to reac h an agreement on the terms. - PTI
