Rishi Sunak, a young man of Indian descent in the 80s, has entered 10 Downing Street and become the 57th British Prime Minister, because Sunak's wife Akshata Murty (Akshata Murty), a Stanford University graduate and the status of the heiress of an Indian billionaire, and the media's evaluation of her "richer than the king", Sunak's in-laws family has also attracted the attention of the British media. On October 27, local time, the Daily Mail wrote a long article about Prime Minister Sunak's extraordinary in-laws, not only India's sixth richest man, but also artificial intelligence experts, astronomy professors, not to mention the companies they founded.
1. Sunak's wealth with his wife Akshata
The couple's net worth is valued at £730 million (about 6.2 billion yuan, currently £1 is about 8.4 yuan, which will not be converted later), which includes multiple properties in the United States and the United Kingdom, India and other countries, a series of business investments, and a fleet of high-profile Range Rover, top Lexus, BMW (although the prime minister says he drives a Volkswagen Golf).
Akshata herself is a fashion designer who ran a fashion company for three years to spread Indian art, in addition to owning shares in a number of businesses, including £430 million in her father's Narayana Murthy's company, in addition to a stake in Amazon's India joint venture Cloudtail, which has £900 million in annual earnings, and a stake in Catamaran Ventures UK, which operates Jamie in India Oliver's Pizza and Wendy's chain of burger joints; owns a company called Eaton Tailor, which produces student tuxedos for £2500 each.
Considering that King Charles III had a net worth of £600 million, it would not be an exaggeration to say that Akshata was richer than the King.
2. Sunak's father-in-law, mother-in-law
Sunak's father-in-law, Narayana Murthy, founded Infosys, an IT company in Bangalore, India, in the 1980s, which was hugely successful and is now worth £9.6bn and employs more than 345,000 people.

With a personal asset of £3.9 billion, Narayana is ranked 6th on India's rich list and 654th in the world.
Sunak's mother-in-law, Sudha Murthy, was the first female engineer at TELCO, India's largest automaker. But what is surprising is that despite the impressive wealth of Mr. Sunak's father-in-law, their parents-in-law are introverted and humble people who live modest lives, and Suda wrote in her book Three Thousand Needles that they cook for themselves and don't like anything but read.
3. Sunak's brother-in-law
Akshata and her younger brother, Rohna Murthy, were raised by their grandparents.

Rohan was a child prodigy from an early age, began learning computer programming at the age of 8, and later earned his doctorate at Harvard University, worked in his father's company, and then resigned to avoid being judged as "nepotism" and founded his own artificial intelligence company, Soroco.
4. Akshata's uncle

Akshata's uncle, Shrinivas Kullkarni, was born and raised in India but currently lives in the United States, where he is a professor of astronomy and planetary science at Caltech, where he served as director of the Optical Astronomy Observatory. Kulkani is an award-winning scholar whose salary is estimated by the Daily Mail to be around £173,000.

Of course, Sunak not only had a hardworking, intelligent, and wealthy in-law family, but his own parents and grandparents also worked hard to create a good life throughout their lives.
