New Delhi– Priti Adani, Chairperson of the Adani Foundation, marked Gautam Adani’s 63rd birthday on Tuesday with an emotional tribute, describing her husband’s journey as one “led with purpose” and shaped by “unwavering resilience.”
In a heartfelt message posted on X (formerly Twitter), she wrote:
“A life led with purpose. A spirit of unwavering resilience. Happy birthday, Gautam Adani. Proud to walk beside you on this extraordinary journey. May you continue to touch and inspire countless lives.”
Their sons, Karan and Jeet Adani, also shared birthday wishes, expressing admiration for their father’s role as a mentor and guide.
“From standing tall in your protective embrace to standing tall by your side — thank you for being our greatest mentor and guide. Happy birthday, Dad. We love you deeply,” wrote Jeet Adani, Vice President of Adani Enterprises.
Karan Adani, Managing Director of Adani Ports and Special Economic Zone Ltd (APSEZ), added:
“Grateful for you, today and always, Dad. Wishing you the happiest birthday.”
The messages came on the same day Gautam Adani addressed shareholders at the Adani Enterprises Annual General Meeting (AGM), where he paid tribute to the Indian Armed Forces for their execution of ‘Operation Sindoor’.
“Their courage reminds us that peace is never free — it is earned,” Adani said.
Reflecting on philanthropic milestones, he recalled the family’s pledge of ₹60,000 crore on his 60th birthday to transform healthcare, education, and skill development in India.
“Our Adani Healthcare Temples are the first major step in that journey — 1,000-bed campuses in Ahmedabad and Mumbai, with integrated medical colleges, research centers, and wellness spaces. Mayo Clinic is our partner in shaping a future-ready, AI-powered, patient-first healthcare ecosystem,” he said.
He also highlighted a ₹2,000 crore commitment toward building a world-class skill university and finishing school in Mundra, aimed at empowering youth across India.
Calling the Dharavi Redevelopment Project (DRP) the “most transformative” of their initiatives, Adani said,
“Asia’s largest slum is now being reimagined as India’s most ambitious urban rehabilitation project.”
He closed his address with a reflection on entrepreneurial spirit and national progress:
“A nation’s future is not written in policy documents — it is written in the risks its entrepreneurs dare to take. We are not laying concrete. We are laying conviction — highways that carry ambition, ports that ship hope, and grids that light up futures.” (Source: IANS)
