Bollywood icon Amitabh Bachchan has expanded his real estate holdings with the purchase of two luxury apartments in Mumbai’s Borivali suburb. This news comes on the heels of his son Abhishek Bachchan’s recent acquisition of six apartments in the same area. The superstar’s new apartments, valued at almost ₹ 7 crore, are located on the 57th floor of the tower, coinciding with the level of Abhishek’s properties. The transactions were finalized on May 29th, with a stamp duty payment of ₹ 40.72 lakh for registration, according to documents obtained through Zapkey.com.
This acquisition follows Amitabh Bachchan’s recent purchase of three office spaces spanning three floors in Mumbai’s Andheri suburb. These office units, situated in the Signature Building on Veera Desai Road, Andheri West, were valued at nearly ₹ 60 crores and included three car parking spaces.
These recent real estate ventures have created a buzz in the property market, as celebrity real estate deals have traditionally been concentrated in South and Central Mumbai, along with prime areas like Bandra, Khar, and Juhu. Last year, Amitabh Bachchan purchased four units totaling 8,396 sq ft in the Signature Building, Andheri for nearly ₹ 29 crores. The purchase incurred a stamp duty of ₹ 1.72 crore.
On May 28, 2024, Abhishek Bachchan bought six apartments in the Oberoi Sky City project in Borivali for over ₹ 15 crore, according to documents from Zapkey.com. Prominent Bollywood figures like Shahrukh Khan, Shilpa Shetty, Akshay Kumar, and Aishwarya Rai have actively invested in various real estate ventures, strategically expanding their portfolios across prime locations. Recently, celebrities like Ranveer Singh, Hrithik Roshan, Rani Mukherjee, Alia Bhatt, Disha Patani, and Janhvi Kapoor have been involved in high-profile transactions, particularly focusing on luxurious and upscale properties.
Amitabh Bachchan is gearing up for the release of his highly anticipated film ‘Kalki 2898 AD,’ co-starring Prabhas, Deepika Padukone, Kamal Haasan, and Disha Patani, set to premiere on June 27th.
