Virat Kohli drops the decision to buy Rs 34 crore luxury apartment in Mumbai

In a recent development, India skipper Virat Kohli had the purchase of his Rs 34 crore luxury apartment cancelled. The 29-year-old booked the house in Omkar 1973 tower located in the Worli area of the megapolis. Earlier in June 2016, the cricketer had bought the 7,171-sqft sea-view apartment on the 35th floor of the under-construction tower C of this super-luxury project for Rs 34 crore. The project is being developed by Omkar Realtors & Developers.

A source privy to the developments confirmed the news of the cancellation as reported by HT. He revealed that Kohli has also declined from making any transaction and further stated that he has recently leased out another sea-facing apartment in the skyscraper by the Raheja group in the nearby Dr Annie Besant Road for a monthly rental of Rs 15 lakh.

The flat in the new apartment being developed by Raheja Legend has a carpet area of 2,675.07 sqft and is on the 40th floor. Kohli has been deeming to shift to a new place after his marriage with beau and Bollywood diva Anushka Sharma last year in December. It seems like the cricketer has finally found his ideal apartment!

Other Indian cricketers have also bought flats in the same apartment

Property consultant Anarock has been appointed by Piramal Fund Management to manage the sale of 70 apartments worth Rs 1,100 crore in Omkar 1973 project. Piramal Fund Management had invested about Rs 1,400 crore in the project, which includes Rs 1,200 crore in debt and Rs 200 crore in equity. In 2015, it had announced the exit of its equity investment in Omkar 1973.

According to sources, other prominent celebrities who have bought apartments in this project are cricketer Yuvraj Singh who bought a flat for Rs 64 crore, followed by the DY Patil family at Rs 49.1 crore and Baba Kalyani of the Kalyani Group for Rs 21.3 crore.
