Every Bollywood actor loves to have a own house in the country's economic capital but it costs a bomb. Superstars and megastars of Bollywood own plush homes in Mumbai whereas the young generation actors are still finding it difficult to own a house even though they have many options. But the young generation actors are preferring to stay in rented homes rather than owning house and they have quite a few reasons to acknowledge their decision.
These days, the young generation Bollywood actors are also looking at other industries and mostly South. The attitude they developed to experiment other industries in the country is a good approach and at the same time they keep moving places all the time. Well it is not an easy thing to maintain homes at every place they flew and it would be a big headache. So to avoid unnecessary, actors are willing to stay in rented homes rather than owing one.
Here is a small scoop about actors who stay rented
Sunny Leone:
This Ragini MMS 2 actress is currently residing at Celina Jaitley’s Yari Road penthouse and she has been staying there for the past two years. Though Sunny Leone has many villas in the world, she wants to a make dream home in Mumbai and is hunting for the right place.
Tapsee Pannu:
When asked about owing house, Tapsee said, “I should get to know about the city well and then decide about buying a property. More over Mumbai in the most expensive city in India and the real estate is always sky high here. In addition to this, buying home with the help of banks is a huge burden. With opportunities pouring down as per our success rate, banks also show disinterest in granting loans for actors. So presently I have no idea to buy a home in Mumbia.”
Director Onir:
Onir has a different perspective on owing a property. “I think rather than buying a home, it is better to stay in rented homes. I don't have any plans to settle down in Mumbai and so prefer rented apartments. There is a freedom being in the rented ones and also thanks to landlords who don't bother about complaints,” said Onir. For the past four years, Onir is staying in a rented apartment in Versova.
Nawazuddin Siddiqui:
This actor has been staying in a Versova apartment for one and a half year now, says that buying a house is not his ultimate goal. “I came here to work not to buy homes. Well there is nothing wrong in having plans to own a home. But in that hurry you can't really accept films just for the sake of money. I will certainly buy a home in Mumbai whenever I feel it is needed, till then my focus is on films,” added Nawaz.
Not to be left behind actors, Chitrangada Singh, Aditi Rao Hydari, Prabhudeva, Jacqueline Fernandez, Nargis Fakri, Yami Gautam, Vidyut Jamwal, Rajkumar Rao and Imtiaz Ali stay in rented properties.
