अनंत अंबानी ने मुर्गियों से भरा एक ट्रक देखा, जिसे बूचड़खाने ले जाया जा रहा था। उन्होंने तुरंत अपने स्टाफ को ट्रक रुकवाने का निर्देश दिया।

इसके बाद ट्रक में मौजूद सभी मुर्गियों की पूरी कीमत चुकाकर उन्हें खरीद लिया और उनकी जान बचा ली।

अनंत अंबानी बेहद नेकदिल इंसान होने के साथ साथ इतने भोले हैं।! ❤️
