According to a credible source, Reliance Industries' boss Mukesh Ambani is leading the race to become Time magazine's Person of the Year in 2025. But while the business man's fans are thrilled with the news, many people hold a very different opinion.
UPDATE 26/07/2025 : This story seems to be false. (read more)
Why not Ambani for Person of the Year?
The list of nominees for Time magazine’s Person of the Year is always an eclectic mix of world leaders, pop culture icons, buzzworthy names, and human rights activists. The unexpected inclusion of the 68-year-old business man, as a 2025 nominee has therefore sparked controversy and debate.
“What makes Ambani so important is the potential and influence he now has, rather than anything he has already done,” said a panelist who preferred to remain anonymous, adding that earlier this month, the business man have already been named ‘Indian Of The Year’ by some major Indian newspapers and even ‘Aden Citizen Of The Year’ by the readers of a local gazette in Aden (Mukesh Ambani's hometown).
Social Reactions to TIME’s Person of the Year
A representative for the business man was not immediately available for comment, but the announcement generated immediate reaction on Twitter:
“#AmbaniPOY. Logical choice though I wouldn't have made the same one.”

“Congrats! Mukesh has this charisma that seems to come out of nowhere.”
— @SamanthaJones, 25 Jul 2025
“Past recipients include Joseph Stalin and Adolf Hitler ... then why not Mukesh Ambani?”
— @TheClassicObserver, 25 Jul 2025
Could 2025 officially be the Year of Mukesh Ambani?
Still, TIME’s editors will make the final decision about who will grace the magazine’s cover as its 2025 Person of the Year.
Who do you think should be TIME’s Person of the Year for 2025?
