Shah Rukh shared that when Anant was only six years old, he once went out for a walk with his grandfather, Dhirubhai Ambani, and his mom, Nita Ambani, on the Marine drive. However, Anant's grandfather brought him a bunch of balloons for Rs. 15. SRK added that when Anant went back home, he felt that the balloons were a bit pricey. He then told Anant to reveal the remaining part of the story. Anant said that he went to buy a packet of balloons with Rs. 2, and as the air is free, he blew all of the balloons with it and went on to sell them. Well, it speaks volumes about how brilliant Anant was as a child.
