Dilip Kumar’s iconic Pali Hill bungalow in Mumbai will be soon demolished and will build an 11-story luxury residential project at the site, which will also house a museum dedicated to the actor’s life journey and key milestones.
As per reports, the museum will be situated on the ground floor with separate access. The price of the deal has not been disclosed yet but reports are rife that the bungalow’s worth is somewhere around Rs 350 crore.
During a conversation with the TOI, the builder said, “We have started the construction work, and the delivery as per RERA registration is scheduled in 2027. However, we will be able to complete it much before that in the next two years.”
In 1953, Dilip Kumar bought this house in Bandra West from Mhd. Latif for Rs. 1.4 lakh and lived there for 50 years. Eventually, he and Saira Banu moved to Bungalow No. 34.
Saira Banu had filed a defamation suit against another developer for attempting to grab the land by forging documents earlier this year. Dilip Kumar passed away in 2021 at the age of 98.
