The year 2022 has just begun, but many real estate transactions have already taken place and made so much noise. Today we are talking about a few deals concerning Bollywood celebrities in the last two months.
Celebrity real estate always makes a good read. The reason behind this is an aspiration.
Everyone wants to know what their favourite actor has bought, may it be a car or a home. However, a real deal does hold a lot of weight because of the money, and the aspiration arouses in the minds of commoners.
Buying a house is a dream that everyone has; thus, many a time, people use celebrity deals as a point of reference.
And when the home is worth several crores of rupees and attaches a celebrity to it, the dream becomes dearer.
