Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt are about to step into their long-dreamed sanctuary, a six-story beauty in Pali Hill that carries a price tag of Rs 250 crore. Locals already whisper its name, the Krishna Raj bungalow, after the actor’s beloved late grandmother, and the gossip columns will almost certainly meet the story long before the movers do.
The plot itself is practically a red carpet rolled out across family history.
Raj Kapoor first marked the land with laughter and celluloid ambition, and the walls later echoed with the mischief of Rishi and Neetu Kapoor during the 1980s. Rumor now insists the deed will sit in little Raha Kapoor’s baby grip, turning the bungalow into a generational handshake between past and future.
Inside, silver chandeliers wrestle for attention with shuttered wooden shutters that remember a different era entirely. Sunlight sneaks through oversized panes, gilding marble and timber as if someone forgot to dim the studio lamps, and every corner is said to hum with the kind of warmth usually reserved for Sunday lunches rather than magazine spreads.

Ivy spilling from every balcony like living confetti. Chat rooms hum about the unfinished front gate, yet most shutters and switches already hum quietly with power, leaving only a final polish before the family walks through the door.
Builder and bride share a ladder: Alia climbs up beside Ranbir, Neetu lingers below with Raha cradled on one hip. The couple makes mini-consultation trips almost daily, eyeballing tiles or sketching in wrought-iron railings by hand, and you can almost hear Kapoor clan ghosts nodding along.
Word is the sale sealed at 250 crore, a figure that rockets past Shah Rukh’s Mannat and Amitabh’s Jalsa as though they were modest chalets by Thane Creek.

Rumor now has the family chasing a calendar priest,
Hoping to sync the grah pravesh with the next lucky tithi so the house opens as freshly as any Hindu heart. When they bought their apartment, firecrackers and lights in every room felt like the perfect welcome, yet unending delays now nudge that landmark Diwali celebration into 2025. Concrete, steel, and paperwork owe very little to the calendar.
Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor are not merely totting up extra square footage.
The Krishna Raj bungalow is a deliberate nod to Bollywood legend, a sentimental Promise for Baby Raha, and a quiet manifesto about holding family close while living in the public eye. Even the builders’ lunch-break graffiti caught at least part of that spirit. Legacy, warmth, stubborn hope; the new address carries them all, shining brighter than any festival lantern, right there in the pulse of Mumbai.
