Did you know: THIS Bollywood star purchased Vijay Mallya's Goa pad; paid Rs 73 crore for the luxury mansion
Vijay Mallya
was back in the news this past week after his team RCB picked up the IPL trophy this season. The big win coupled with nostalgia swirling, attention once again turned to the high-profile assets he once owned, particularly the villa where Goa's most opulent parties unfolded.
Among the many reports that resurfaced on the internet was the sale of his sprawling mansion, the iconic Kingfisher Villa in Goa.

. Renamed King's Mansion, the 12,350 sq. ft. sea-facing estate in Candolim was sold in 2017 for Rs 73.01 crore. Interestingly, this paycheque was significantly lower than its original reserve price of over Rs 90 crore.
The off-market sale was reportedly finalised through a private treaty, sources confirmed to PTI. This was reportedly acquired after multiple failed auction attempts by banks trying to recover dues from the businessman. 'Secured creditors have the right to go for a private treaty if the auction route fails,' a person familiar with the matter told PTI.
Sprawled across a lush three-acre plot, the estate includes landscaped gardens, open-air dance floors, artificial ponds, and private swimming pools.

'Today is the day I open the gates to the world,' Joshi said in a statement, officially unveiling the property under its new name - King's Mansion. 'The brand connection from King's Beer and the inherent grandeur of the property made the choice clear.'
Joshi, who rose to prominence through films like Azaan and Jackpot, is also a businessman with interests in alcohol, hospitality, wellness, and entertainment. His business ventures include King's Beer, a local favourite in Goa—creating a fitting brand extension in the rechristened mansion.

Dollar steadies after rally, focus shifts to US-China trade talks
The dollar held steady against all major currencies on Monday, as exuberance over an upbeat U.S. employment report gave way to caution ahead of pivotal U.S.-China trade talks set to take place in London later in the day. The talks come at a crucial time for both economies, with China grappling with deflation and trade uncertainty dampening sentiment among U.S. businesses and consumers, prompting investors to reassess the dollar's safe-haven status. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 허리통증에 다리가 저리다면 지금 늦지 않았다! 비수술로 치료 가능합니다! ort02a_강남정형외과병원 지금 문의 Undo Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent , Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick and Trade Representative Jamieson Greer are expected to represent the U.S. at the trade talks, while vice premier He Lifeng would likely be present with the Chinese delegation. "A deal to keep talking might be better than nothing, but unless we see a concrete breakthrough, the impact on sentiment is likely to remain muted," said Charu Chanana, chief investment strategist at Saxo Markets. Friday's upbeat U.S. jobs report yielded some relief for investors following other bleak economic data last week. Live Events The dollar advanced against major peers after the employment report, which cut weekly declines in the dollar index by more than half. However, it is still down by more than 8.6% for the year. On Monday, the yen firmed 0.10% at 144.750 per dollar, as data showed Japan's economy contracted at a slower-than-expected pace in the January-March period. The Swiss franc was steady at 0.8221 per dollar by 0041 GMT. The euro was last flat at $1.1399, while the sterling fetched $1.3535. The dollar index, which measures the U.S. currency against six others, was steady at 99.169. The yield on 10-year Treasury notes was flat in early Asia trading, after a more than 10 basis points jump on Friday. New Zealand's dollar last bought $0.6020, while the Australian dollar inched up 0.1% at $0.65 in light volumes as markets were closed for a public holiday. An inflation report out of the U.S. for the month of May will be in the spotlight later in the week as investors and Federal Reserve policymakers look for evidence on the damage trade restrictive policies have had on the economy. Fed officials are in a blackout period ahead of their policy meeting next week, but they have signalled that they are in no rush to cut interest rates and signs of better-than-feared economic resilience are likely to further cement their stance. Interest rate futures indicate that investors are anticipating the central bank may cut borrowing costs by 25 basis points, with the earliest move expected in October this year, according to data compiled by LSEG. "May is the first month where the impact of Trump's 10% universal tariff on imports ex-USMCA is expected to show. The Fed will want a few months of inflation data in order to judge the tariff impact and most importantly, its persistence," analysts at ANZ Bank said. Elsewhere, China's offshore yuan was last at 7.187 per dollar ahead of inflation and trade data.

Ritesh Agarwal invites people to carve out ‘new identity' for OYO, announces ₹3 lakh for winner
Entries for suggesting names for Oravel Stays, a parent firm of Ritesh Agarwal led OYO, have begun and will close soon, the founder shared on Instagram, stating the winner will receive ₹ 3 lakh. This comes amid the global travel tech platform getting ready to launch its Initial Public Offering (IPO). Ritesh mentioned that the ideal name should be bold and one-word, global in appeal, not rooted in any single culture or language. It should feel tech-forward, sharp, yet human and memorable. The name must be broad enough to evolve beyond hospitality, and ideally, the .com domain should be available. He's offering a prize of ₹ 3 lakh to the winner, along with an opportunity to meet him. "We're renaming the corporate brand behind it all. Not the hotel chain, not a consumer product — but the parent company powering a global ecosystem of urban innovation and modern living. We believe it's time the world had a new kind of global brand — born in India, but built for the world," Ritesh had said. 'There is a high possibility that the name chosen through the exercise may end up being the name of the premium hotels app that OYO has been working to launch in the near future,' PTI quoted the people familiar with the development as saying.
