In a strategic real estate move, Indian cricketer KL Rahul and his father-in-law, Bollywood icon Suniel Shetty, have jointly acquired a significant 7-acre land parcel in the Owale area of Thane West, near Mumbai. The purchase, valued at ₹9.85 crore, reflects a growing trend among celebrities investing in real estate beyond central Mumbai, tapping into the high-growth corridors of the Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR).
The land is located in Owale, a prime locality in Thane West along the bustling Ghodbunder Road – a crucial arterial route connecting Thane to Mumbai. This area is rapidly developing and has become a hotbed for real estate investments due to its connectivity, infrastructure development, and proximity to nature.
