Hrithik Roshan and Rakesh Roshan boost their off-screen empire with Rs. 10.9 crores property buy in Mumbai

Bollywood’s iconic father–son team, Rakesh Roshan and Hrithik Roshan, have made a noteworthy addition to their growing business footprint. Their company, HRX Digitech LLP, has acquired four commercial units worth Rs.10.90 crores in Andheri West, Mumbai. The deals were registered in November 2025, as per documents reviewed by Square Yards through the Inspector General of Registration (IGR).

The units are located in Yura Business Park Phase 2, a commercial hub in one of Mumbai’s busiest entertainment-linked neighbourhoods. Andheri West remains a magnet for production houses, media studios, and creative agencies — sectors that align closely with the Roshans’ long-established presence in the film industry. With excellent connectivity via the Western Express Highway, Link Road, and the metro and railway networks, the area continues to attract major celebrity and corporate investments.

According to the documents, the first of the newly purchased commercial spaces is valued at Rs. 3.42 crores and spans a RERA carpet area of 79.15 sq. m. (roughly 852 sq. ft.), along with two car parking slots. Another unit, bought for Rs. 2.19 crores, offers a carpet area of 50.63 sq. m. (around 545 sq. ft.) and comes with one parking space. The purchases also reflect the requisite stamp duty and registration payments made for each transaction, including Rs. 20.54 lakh and Rs.13.14 lakh respectively for these two units, with Rs. 30,000 paid as registration charges on each.

The third acquisition, worth Rs. 3.39 crores, includes a carpet area of 78.50 sq. m. (around 845 sq. ft.) and one parking spot, accompanied by a stamp duty of Rs. 20.37 lakh and registration fees of Rs. 30,000. Meanwhile, the fourth commercial space is priced at Rs.1.90 crore and spans 43.94 sq. m. (approximately 473 sq. ft.), with one allocated parking slot. For this transaction, HRX Digitech LLP paid Rs.11.40 lakh as stamp duty and Rs.30,000 towards registration.

Rakesh Roshan, celebrated for directing hits like Kaho Naa… Pyaar Hai and the Krrish franchise has maintained a strong entrepreneurial streak throughout his career. Hrithik Roshan, one of Hindi cinema’s most acclaimed and versatile actors with films like Jodhaa Akbar, War, and Krrish to his credit, has similarly expanded his interests beyond the screen.

Together, they helm HRX Digitech LLP — a media-tech and investment-focused venture that represents their vision for modern, digital-led businesses. The latest round of acquisitions highlights the duo’s continued commitment to diversifying into high-value commercial assets, further strengthening the Roshan family’s presence both within and outside the world of entertainment.

EXCLUSIVE: Shabana Azmi joins the cast of Awarapan 2; to be seen in a pivotal role in the Emraan Hashmi-starrer

Awarapan 2 is surely one of the highly awaited films of 2026, thanks to the craze and popularity of the first part. Moreover, lead actor Emraan Hashmi’s star power got a boost recently with a cameo in The Ba***ds Of Bollywood. And now, the excitement for Awarapan 2 has gone many notches higher as Bollywood Hungama has learned that none other than Shabana Azmi has joined the star cast.

A source told Bollywood Hungama, “Shabana Azmi has come on board for Awarapan 2. The role is apt for her and she was more than happy to bag the coveted part. It’s an interesting and powerful creative decision by producer Vishesh Bhatt that significantly intensifies the film’s emotional core and conflict. Interestingly, this marks Shabana Azmi’s first-ever collaboration with Vishesh Films.”

The source also said, “Also, Awarapan 2 marks her first on-screen pairing with Emraan Hashmi, creating a new and formidable dramatic tension audiences have never seen before. Moreover, the casting is in sync with the trademark Bhatt storytelling ethos — anchored in strong performances, morally complex characters, and emotionally charged drama.”

However, not much is known about Shabana Azmi’s character at this point. The source said, “All the details remain tightly under wraps. The makers are expected to officially reveal it in a few weeks. Nevertheless, with Shabana ji’s entry, Awarapan 2 now boasts of a unique star combination — Emraan Hashmi, Shabana Azmi and Disha Patani — with more cast additions also expected to surprise audiences.”

Awarapan 2 is directed by Nitin Kakkar of Filmistaan (2014) fame. The film had a long schedule in Bangkok, Thailand and as per reports, the makers plan to wrap up the shoot by January 2026. The film is on track for its release on April 3, 2026.

With Shabana Azmi coming on board, Awarapan 2 is no longer just a much-awaited sequel; it is now positioned as a prestige thriller that blends scale with soul and solid performances.

Bollywood Hungama was the first one to share the news last month about Siddhant playing the character of the legendary filmmaker in the film.

The newly released poster presents Siddhant in a striking, era-specific look that mirrors the intensity, vision and creative rebellion associated with V. Shantaram.

Speaking about taking on the role, Siddhant Chaturvedi said in an exclusive quote: “It’s a great responsibility and an honour to be stepping into the shoes of an iconic filmmaker who revolutionised Indian cinema for generations to come.”

V. Shantaram traces the extraordinary journey of the auteur — from the silent-film era to the evolution of sound and colour — highlighting his pioneering storytelling, fearless innovation and enduring cultural impact.

The film is written and directed by Abhijeet Shirish Deshpande, and presented by Rajkamal Enterttainment, Camera Take Films and Roaring Rivers Productions. It is produced by Rahul Kiran Shantaram, Subhash Kale and Sarita Ashwin Varde.

With this announcement and poster reveal, Siddhant Chaturvedi signals a powerful turn in his trajectory as he brings to life one of Indian cinema’s most influential visionaries.
