The founder and chairman of Reliance Foundation wore a white, cotton puffed sleeve shirt designed by Simone Rocha. It has a front-button fastening, with a U-shaped hem that she kept untucked.
The shirt was paired with a ‘Cecil Beaton Blue Carnation’ cropped wide-leg pant, beige in colour with the blue carnations designed on top.
In terms of accessories, Nita Ambani kept it simple with a watch on her left hand and a Mumbai Indians wristband on her right. She wore diamond-studded earrings and completed the look with open hair and minimal makeup.
Nita Ambani’s speech at ESA match day event
Speaking at the event, Nita Ambani urged the Mumbai Indian players that they should play with a smile on their faces and make the children smile too. She also announced that, for the first time, visually challenged children will be coming to see the match as a part of the initiative.
“Exciting day tomorrow. Keep the smiles alive. You all also smile and make the children also smile, okay? We have 20,000 children coming from all kinds of underprivileged backgrounds. And for the first time ever, we have the visually challenged, the blind children coming. They can hear and feel the excitement. They have never been to a stadium before. And all that they want to do is to hear Mumbai Indians. All they want to do is feel the excitement that you are going to give them,” she said.
She also revealed an anecdote from one of the special ESA matches, revealing how a girl, who was sitting with a cake inside her snack box, refused to eat it without sharing it with her brother back home, who had never tasted it before.
“These are just simple joys that you can never imagine,” she shared. “It is my endeavour to spread the message far and wide to say girls and boys, both are equal. And both deserve equal right to education and sport. And I just want you all to have just one promise, and all that we are going to endeavour to do tomorrow is to spread joy to them. This is one match that I want you to play with your heart. Thank you so much.”
