Bollywood legend Amitabh Bachchan has reportedly made another significant investment in Ayodhya, acquiring a 54,454 sq ft plot of land located 10 km from the Ram Mandir. This marks his second land purchase in the holy city since the consecration of the temple in 2024, as per a Times of India report.
Amitabh Bachchan’s Second Land Purchase in Ayodhya
The latest land purchase was made via the Harivansh Rai Bachchan Trust, named after his father. Previously, on January 16, 2024, Bachchan had bought a smaller plot in Haveli Avadh for ₹4.54 crore.
Confirming the sale, Pratap Singh, Assistant Inspector General of the Stamp and Registration Department of Ayodhya, told the publication:
“We can only confirm that sale deeds have taken place. Once the building plan is approved by the local development authority, one would know the purpose of these investments.”
The transactions were reportedly facilitated by Rajesh Rishikesh Yadav, acting on behalf of the actor. Sources indicate that while the Haveli Avadh plot is intended for residential use, the larger land purchased now may be used for charitable purposes.
