Late actor Dilip Kumar Ji's museum will be made on the ground floor of the building after it's redeveloped.

The late legendary actor, Dilip Kumar, has left an indelible mark in our hearts. His movies hold a significant place in the history of Bollywood cinema. On 7th July 2021, at the age of 98, Dilip Ji bid farewell to the world, leaving a void in our hearts. Recent news has surfaced that his iconic Pali Hill property will undergo demolition. In place of that, they will build a museum dedicated to Dilip Kumar Ji.

Residential property of Dilip Kumar to be made into a museum dedicated to him

For the unversed, Dilip Kumar’s residence has been at the centre of a prolonged controversy. His wife, Saira Banu, has recently served a defamation notice to another developer. She claimed the opposition had attempted to seize the land through document forgery.

As reported by the Indian Express, the artist’s property will be demolished with the consent of the family. In its place, a luxurious residential project will be developed. However, the most fascinating part is that they have planned a museum exclusively devoted to Dilip Kumar and his illustrious career. This museum will find its home on the ground floor of the 11-story apartment building.

Real estate developer Ashar Group has joined hands with Dilip Kumar’s family for this project. Providing additional information, the publication revealed that the plot spans half an acre, and the total construction area of the project will be 1.75 lakh square feet. The Ashar Group has confirmed that they have resolved all legal issues related to the project.

We are quite excited to see the end results and visit the museum. It’s going to evoke a fresh hit of nostalgia.
