Although he is of indian descent, Rishi Sunak is technically a british citizen. However, his wife Akshata Murthy comes from an orthodox Hindu family in India, where her father narayana murthy owns the Infosys Company and is one of the richest people in the world. sudha Murthy, the mother of Akshata, is a prolific author whose writings have appeared in numerous publications and are in high demand. Her main concentration has been on bringing modern english readers familiar with Hindu mythical tales. She is referred to as "India's favourite grandmother."

In a previous interview, sudha Murthy described how strict she was with Ashata and Rohan. She never permitted them to live the life of a wealthy father's offspring. She raised kids without even watching television at home since she believed it might interfere with their schoolwork. She also taught them to be simple. Although it is unknown, Sunak's name may have originally been spelled Sounak because that was the name of an old Rishi, or respected saint, in India. narayana murthy once referred to Sunak as "intelligent, attractive, and, most importantly, honest."

At Stanford University, Akshata and Rishi first met, fell in love, and were later wed in 2009 during a straightforward ceremony. According to estimates, Akshata's stake in Infosys is worth almost USD 700 million, making her richer than the late queen Elizabeth II. She just published, "My birthplace, citizenship, parents' house, and place of residence are all still in India. But I also adore the UK." Two girls named anoushka and krishna were born to the couple. Bottom line: If Rishi Sunak includes his wife's income in his calculation of family income, he is actually the wealthiest prime minister in british history.
