'Mukesh bailing out Anil may be watershed moment in their relationship'

Richest Indian Mukesh Ambani saving younger brother Anil from jail by helping his struggling telecom firm repay Swedish supplier Ericsson may be a watershed moment in the relationship between the two brothers, who have in the past publicly bickered and fought court cases against each other.

Industry watchers said the last-minute bailout may mark the beginning of a more harmonious relationship between the two brothers after more than a decade of strained ties.

Anil, who along with his wife and children was photographed enjoying the recent weddings of Mukesh's children, thanked his elder brother and sister-in-law for "standing (by him) during these trying times, and demonstrating the importance of staying true to our strong family values by extending this timely support."
A source said the two brothers could even work more closely in the future. "It may well turn out to be a watershed moment in their relationship."
