Hrithik Roshan reportedly owns commercial office units in the Chandivali area of Mumbai, and companies lease them. The rent comes in whether or not he has a film in theaters. It is a quiet arrangement, and he is not alone in making it.
A run-through of Bollywood property holdings shows stars putting money into everything from rented flats to housing developments. The details come largely from reported holdings, so the figures below are estimates rather than audited numbers.
Landlords with famous names
Amitabh Bachchan holds commercial office units in Andheri West, one of Mumbai’s busiest business districts. Estimated rent runs ₹2 to 4 lakh per unit each month. Kartik Aaryan has a luxury apartment in Juhu that reportedly brings in ₹4 to 5 lakh a month. Juhu remains one of the city’s most expensive neighborhoods.
Ajay Devgn reportedly bought a commercial office property in Andheri in 2023 for around ₹45 to 47 crore. Production houses and media companies cluster in the area. Akshay Kumar, known for disciplined money planning, owns several residential properties in Mumbai and Canada.
The Kapoor family has built up residential buildings and land in Mumbai over the years. Veteran actor Jeetendra and his son Tusshar Kapoor come from that family, as does Karisma Kapoor, who benefits from the same base of prime Mumbai property. Bobby Deol has put money into commercial property in the city as a financial safety net outside films.
Stars who became builders
Vivek Oberoi has gone further than most. He co-founded Karrm Infrastructure, which builds affordable housing in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region for middle-income buyers.
Riteish Deshmukh, trained in architecture and engineering, founded Evolutions Design, a Mumbai firm doing luxury residences, commercial offices and hospitality spaces. Atul Agnihotri’s company, Shivansai Homemaker Infra LLP, is working on the redevelopment of the Palimala Co-operative Housing Society in Bandra. The society is 60 years old, and its residents are due to receive larger, upgraded apartments after reconstruction.
Filmmaker Rohit Shetty runs Rohit Shetty Picturez, with a production company office in Andheri West. His banner Rohit Shetty Productions was used for projects such as Singham Returns and Dilwale. He also owns Shetty Tower, a 10-storey residential building in Juhu.
Hotels, clubs and family gifts
Suniel Shetty put money into hospitality. His holdings include H2O Hospitality Pvt Ltd, which manages restaurants and clubs, the H2O The Liquid Lounge nightclub and the Mischief Dining Bar, mostly in Bandra and Worli.
Shilpa Shetty and her husband Raj Kundra have invested heavily in luxury real estate in India and abroad, and one property was a gift from Kundra in the early years of their marriage.
