Mukesh Ambani has been the flag-bearer of India’s billionaires from quite some time now, and with his current net worth valuing at US $50 billion, the dethronement is least likely. One of the testaments to his super-rich status is Antilia, the 27-story home of the Ambani family. Here are a few facts about Antilia that you may not have read elsewhere:

For entertainment purposes, the house also has a theatre with a seating capacity of 50 people.
10. Each floor boasts of different designs and materials used for construction.
