Cricket star KL Rahul and his Bollywood actress wife Athiya Shetty have cemented their place among Mumbai’s elite with the purchase of a luxurious apartment in the city’s prestigious Pali Hill area. This high-profile acquisition, valued at a staggering INR 20 crore, signifies not only their financial success but also their entry into the exclusive club of celebrities who call Pali Hill home.
Sprawling over 3,350 square feet, their new residence offers a spacious haven within the bustling metropolis. Nestled on the second floor of the towering Sandhu Palace building, the apartment boasts a prime location and provides the couple with a luxurious urban sanctuary. Notably, the building has already received a partial occupancy certificate from the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC), adding to its appeal.
Pali Hill has long been a coveted address for Mumbai’s A-listers. With property values exceeding INR one lakh per square foot, it’s a haven for the city’s wealthy and famous. Rahul and Shetty join a list of celebrities who have chosen this posh locality, further solidifying its status as one of Mumbai’s most desirable neighbourhoods.
