HT has reported that Man Infraconstruction Limited (MICL), a real estate developer has plans to launch an ultra-luxury project in Mumbai's Pali Hill locality in Bandra by the end of this year. The project will be developed as part of the redevelopment of the Virgo Cooperative Housing Society, where Aamir lives and also owns multiple apartments.
The Lagaan actor, who owns approximately 12 apartments in the building, will receive a unit in the rehabilitation section of the project, along with the other existing residents.
Aamir has acquired another property in Pali Hill. It measures 1,027 sq ft and costs over ₹9 crore. The transfer deed was finalised in June 2024, attracting a stamp duty of ₹58.5 lakh and a registration fee of ₹30,000, according to property registration documents accessed by Square Yards.
"The project is currently under the approval stage, and we, along with our partners, are working on the documentation with the society. The target now is to launch the project in December 2025, Manan Shah, Managing Director of MICL, told HT.
According to Manan, the luxury apartments in their Pali Hill redevelopment project, which includes the redevelopment of Aamir Khan's housing complex, are expected to be priced above ₹1 lakh per sq ft.
Shah Rukh Khan and family have relocated to four floors of Puja Casa building in Pali Hill area of Bandra. The actor has leased these floors from film producer Vashu Bhagnani. The actor's Red Chillies Entertainment has entered into a leave and licence agreement with Bhagnani's actor son, Jackky Bhagnani and his daughter, Deepshika Deshmukh, who co-owns the property. Sources said that renovation work at Mannat was supposed to begin in May. This includes a long-proposed extension of the bungalow, for which the actor had to get the court's permission. Shah Rukh's Mannat is a Grade III heritage structure, and any structural change can only take place after securing proper permissions.

Aamir Khan interview: No troll can stop a good film

Aamir Khan is finishing a run of interviews at his Santa Cruz office in Mumbai. He looks as animated as some of his characters. 'I'm going down?' he queries his associates, shuffling into an elevator. 'I'm coming up again? Um-hum.' Khan is 60, looks no more than 48, and is itchy with excitement for his newest release. This is not the man I encountered seven years ago, during the release of Thugs of Hindostan, clammy with unspoken nervousness about a shaky product. Or the man who disappeared behind a beard to play Tom Hanks, loudly and disappointingly, in Laal Singh Chaddha. In interviews and podcasts, Khan has been open about the failure of these two films. His latest, Sitaare Zameen Par, finds him on a surer footing. Like a merry highlights reel, the trailer combines the best elements of Khan's filmography: sports, humour, team assembly, social uplift. Directed by R.S. Prasanna, the film is a remake of the Spanish drama Champions. It follows a mouthy, knuckleheaded basketball coach put in charge of a team of players with intellectual disabilities. 'This film entered my bloodstream,' Khan says. Here, he speaks about working with his co-stars, the miasma of trolling and negativity that befogs his recent releases, and his hopes for the theatrical business in India. You had hinted at a break after 'Laal Singh Chaddha'. Yet, here you are with 'Sitaare Zameen Par', a film two years in development… Aamir Khan: When a film or an idea inspires me, I just have to make it. My director, R.S. Prasanna, brought the Spanish film Champions (2018) to me. When I saw it, I was extremely moved by it. It left a deep impact on me. I also felt it was the ideal sequel to Taare Zameen Par. In that film, it's the teacher, Nikumbh, a supposedly neuro-typical person, who helps the child with dyslexia. In this film, ten neuro-atypical people are helping the coach, Gulshan. I feel Sitare takes the discourse of the first film ten steps ahead, especially in our country where people need to be sensitised to the topic of neurodivergence. Like 'Laal Singh', this film has also been subjected to online trolling. Are you nervous about the release? AK: I don't think trolling affects the box-office performance of a film. Not at all. When a film is good, no troll in the world can stop it. And if a film is bad, no producer in the world can make it work. You may assume that Laal Singh Chaddha did not work because of the trolling. That's not true. If, in place of that film, 3 Idiots or Dangal had released, and was trolled just as viciously, it would have still become a superhit. Laal Singh Chaddha did not turn out well as a film. It could not touch the audience's heart. That's why it failed. ...when I read comments on YouTube, I am always interested in what the real audience is saying. If someone is writing, 'boycott!' or 'go to Pakistan', I can instantly tell they are trolls. Their reactions don't affect me. Much like your character, Gulshan, what did you learn from your ten co-stars? AK: They are all between the age of 18-42. The oldest is Rishi Shahani, who won the gold and silver medals in swimming for India at the Special Olympics World Games in 1999. What I learned from them is the importance of being happy. If a person has a high IQ of 195, but they are always anxious and grouchy, what is the point? I have worked with neuro-typical people for the last 35 years. Usually, on a film set, there are ego clashes and tussles. That never happened on Sitare. When these ten people were on set, the whole energy brightened. They were always smiling, hugging and spreading good cheer. Their presence was so pure and innocent that no one raised their voice. What is the streaming plan for 'Sitare Zameen Par'? You spoke out recently on short theatrical windows affecting the business adversely. AK: I have received multiple offers and proposals and I have said no to all of them. I am a believer in cinema and the theatrical experience. Whatever I am today, it is because of cinemas. I am a loyalist of that format. Perhaps I am making a mistake by not selling the OTT rights upfront, as most Hindi film producers today are doing. In today's age, unless a film has sold to streaming, it cannot be green-lit. I am the only person who is holding out. Perhaps I will incur a huge financial loss as a result. But we'll see. My mission, at present, is to revive the theatrical business in India, which has been on a steady decline. Exhibitors, especially multiplex owners, point to high real estate costs to justify steep pricing. How do you resolve this? AK: I am actively working towards creating policies and coming up with ideas that can create theatres which are economical. Where ticket pricing can be moderated. In India, we have 9,000-10,000 screens for a population of 1.4 billion. By contrast, China has 90,000-95,000 screens while the US has 35,000 screens. There are so many districts in India that do not have a single theatre. In a city like Mumbai or New Delhi, the price of land is very high, so theatres have to pay huge rents. You cannot blame them. But what about the rest of the country? So we need to build more economical theatres across the country. You are doing an action film with Lokesh Kanagaraj. But it won't start until next year. Why not strike a trend while it's hot? AK: Yaar, I am not able to think like that. When I decided to do Sitaare Zameen Par, the people who are close to me told me not to do another remake after Laal Singh Chaddha. Everyone advised me to do an action film instead. It's the flavour of the season. But I wanted to tell this story. It's a humorous film with drama at its centre, like a Rajkumar Hirani movie. Interestingly, when I did Ghajini, in 2008, the opposite had happened. I was told that action films hadn't worked for the last five years. That it was the wrong time to make action. So my films have always released at odd times, because I don't follow the industry's metrics. I follow my heart. And I have complete faith in my audience. If I have made a good film, they will come and watch. Sitaare Zameen Par releases in theatres on June 20

When Sonam Kapoor said 'I don't think Shah Rukh wants to work with me' despite getting so many opportunities

Sonam Kapoor is one of the most outspoken actresses we have in Bollywood. She has never hesitated in speaking her mind, and she is loved by many. Well, there was a time when the Aisha star, without any hesitation, spoke about how she doesn't think that Shah Rukh Khan wanted to work with her. Anil Kapoor's daughter also confessed to reaching out to him for the same, but that did not happen. This 2016 interview never gets old. Talking to Filmfare, Sonam Kapoor was questioned about not working with Shah Rukh Khan. To this, the actress casually replied that she doesn't think King Khan wants to work with her. 'There have been so many opportunities… I wanted to work with him and reached out to him as well, but I never got the opportunity. I guess it will happen whenever he feels like working with me.' There was yet another Bollywood Hungama interview, where she had been asked by a fan about why she had not worked with SRK in a film yet? The Kapoor lad replied, saying that she hasn't been offered even a single film with him. Adding on to it, she said, 'No body from Shah Rukh Khan's space has ever offered her a film. Maybe I'm not the kind of actor he wants to work with.' Talking about her personal front, the Zoya Factor actor has been enjoying her married life with husband Anand Ahuja. These two are happily raising their son, Vayu, and the pictures are always dreamy. Recently, she hosted her birthday bash in Mumbai, and it was attended by not just her Kapoor Khaandaan but also her close friends from the industry. The list includes Kareena Kapoor Khan-Saif Ali Khan, Swara Bhasker, Masaba Gupta, Vedang Raina, Pernia Qureshi, Bhumi Pednekar and a lot of other people. Sonam has taken it slow in terms of her professional front after the birth of her son Vayu. She does not have any officially announced films yet. But, reportedly, the actress will be a part of Battle for Bittora.

Throwback: When Shah Rukh Khan played a cricket match with Vijay Mallya

Shah Rukh Khan is not only the 'Badshaah' of Bollywood but also a big cricket lover. As the proud owner of the IPL team 'Kolkata Knight Riders' (KKR). Fans often see Shah Rukh Khan and his family cheering loudly from the stands, celebrating their team's wins. But it is very rare to see the 'Pathaan' actor actually playing cricket. One special day changed that. Shah Rukh Khan vs Vijay Mallya On May 14, 2011, a charity cricket match took place at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru. This match was between two teams owned by Shah Rukh Khan and Vijay Mallya, who was then a billionaire businessman but is now a fugitive. It was a fun and friendly game, known as United Breweries vs Bollywood. The match was played by the management teams of KKR and Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB). Shah Rukh Khan was seen batting and bowling, showing his love for the game. Vijay Mallya was also there, fielding, along with his son Siddharth Mallya. This match created a brief but interesting rivalry between the two owners. Shah Rukh Khan's next big film: 'King' Apart from cricket, Shah Rukh Khan is busy preparing for his next film called 'King'. This film is very special because it will feature his daughter Suhana Khan for the first time on screen. Fans are excited to see the father-daughter duo acting together. As per reports, 'King' will also star Deepika Padukone in an important role. Rani Mukerji is reportedly playing Suhana's mother.
