The book was not published in India because the Ambanis threatened legal action;<ref name="BS.in">{{cite web|url=http://www.business-standard.com/india/news/the-returnthe-polyester-prince/409864/|title=The return of The Polyester Prince |work=Business Standard|date=2 October 2010 |access-date=12 September 2012}}</ref> an updated version went on sale under the title ''Ambani and Sons'' in 2010, and there has been no action against the publisher so far.<ref name="BS.in"/> A [[Bollywood]] movie ''[[Guru (2007 film)|Guru]]'', directed by filmmaker [[Mani Ratnam]], is said to be set on the life of Dhirubhai Ambani due to similarities between the plot and Ambani's life.
