Amitabh Bachchan

Amitabh Bachchan has been quite interested in real estate investments for some time and has been buying property in Ayodhya. Reportedly, the actor recently made his 4th big property purchase in Ayodhya, acquiring a plot of about 25,000 square feet at a cost of nearly Rs 40 crore. His fourth and yet another expensive purchase in Ayodhya is in the same vicinity as another high-end investment.

As per HT, this deal in Ayodhya by Big B came just a few days after he invested Rs 10 crore each in a real estate firm owned by Bollywood producer Anand Pandit. According to Mint, Ayodhya seems to be Big B's favourite place. Before the Ram Mandir inauguration last year, he reportedly paid Rs 4.54 crore. He also made a deal involving a Rs 14.5 crore investment in the Sarayu project and acquired a 54,000 square feet plot in the city, which was registered under his father Harivansh Rai Bachchan's trust.

Actor and Rajya Sabha member Jaya Bachchan shared the total value of their assets last year in her election affidavit. It showed that their combined assets were worth Rs 1,578 crore.
