Owner Dilip Kumar and Raj Kapoor s ancestral houses in Pakistan have refused to sell the houses at a rate fixed by government. Pakistan’s Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government and the owners of the ancestral houses of Dilip Kumar and Raj Kapoor had been urged to reach a settlement over the rate fixed for the purchase of the two historic buildings for converting them into museums. The owners, however, are not agreeing with the rate fixed by the government.
The provincial government early this month approved the release of Rs 2.35 crore to purchase the ancestral houses of the two legendary actors located in the heart of this city. The price of Dilip Kumar s four marla (101 square metre) house has been fixed at Rs 80.56 lakh (USD 50,517) while that of Raj Kapoor s six marla house (151.75 square metre) at Rs 1.50 crore (USD 94,061). After the procurement, both the houses will be converted into museums by the archaeology department of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. However, the owners of the ancestral houses have refused to sell the buildings at the rate fixed by the provincial government, saying the prime location property has been severely undervalued.
Family and fans of the Indian film legends Dilip Kumar and Raj Kapoor may have to wait longer for their ancestral home to be turned into museums, thanks to the exorbitant prices for the properties quoted by the current owners.
