Ronit Roy leases Andheri west office space for Rs 1.39 crores over five yearsi

Actor Ronit Roy has leased a commercial office space in Mumbai’s Andheri West for a total rent of approximately Rs 1.39 crores over a five-year period. The transaction adds to the actor’s reported real estate holdings in the city, where he also owns a residential apartment in Versova.

According to a Business Standard report citing property registration documents accessed by CRE Matrix, the office measures 950 square feet and is situated on the fourth floor of Vastu Prestige, near City Mall in Andheri West.

The leave-and-licence agreement was registered on June 12, with the lease commencing on July 10. The agreement will remain valid until July 9, 2031, covering a total tenure of 60 months.

As per the report, the commercial premises have been leased to Kerawi Care (OPC) Private Limited, represented by its director, Vandana Verma. Roy is listed as the licensor in the agreement, while the company is the licensee.

The office space carries a monthly rent of Rs 2.1 lakhs, while the security deposit has been set at Rs 6.5 lakhs. The total rent payable over the five-year period amounts to Rs 1,39,24,584. The agreement also provides for an annual rent escalation of 5%, along with a lock-in period of 36 months for both parties.

The terms further specify the division of property-related expenses between the parties. Roy, as the licensor, will be responsible for property taxes, maintenance charges and non-occupancy charges. Meanwhile, the tenant will pay electricity bills according to actual consumption. The report also noted that the agreement does not mention any designated car parking space for the office.

This is not the actor’s first reported real estate transaction in Mumbai. According to a Hindustan Times report citing property registration documents accessed by IndexTap.com, Roy purchased a 4,258-square-foot apartment in the Lodha Versova project in 2024 for Rs 18.94 crores. The property reportedly came with four car parking spaces.

A separate Economic Times report published in September 2026 stated that Roy and his family reside in Versova, where they expanded their home over the years by acquiring adjoining apartments.

Apart from his acting career, Roy is known for his roles as Mihir Virani in Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi and Rishabh Bajaj in Kasautii Zindagii Kay. He also owns Ace Security and Protection, a security agency that has reportedly served several prominent Bollywood personalities, including Amitabh Bachchan, Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan and Aamir Khan. The agency also provided protection to Saif Ali Khan following the attack on the actor.

Awarapan 2 gets OTT premiere: Emraan Hashmi starrer starts streaming on Prime Video

On October 9, 2026, Prime Video announced the exclusive global streaming premiere of Vishesh Bhatt’s Awarapan 2, the Hindi action drama that brought back Emraan Hashmi as one of his most-remembered characters. The return of Shivam comes nearly two decades after Awarapan, directed by Mohit Suri, became a defining film for a generation of viewers, with its brooding protagonist, poignant storytelling, and soulful music leaving a lasting imprint on popular culture.

Directed by Nitin Kakkar, Awarapan 2 builds on that familiarity, while taking Shivam into a next chapter, blending the emotional intensity of his story with high-octane action and the nostalgic musical sensibility audiences remember from the era. The film also stars Disha Patani, Shabana Azmi, Puran Gabbi, Vijayant Kohli, and Suvinder Vicky in pivotal roles, and weaves romance, action, and drama against the backdrop of the criminal underworld.

Vishesh Bhatt brings Awarapan 2, the second chapter of the blockbuster franchise. In a remote Rajasthan village, Shivam Pandit grieves at his beloved’s grave, questioning his purpose, his life. Having withdrawn from the world of crime and carrying the guilt of a past he cannot alter, he has resigned himself to a life in solitude. Then, an unexpected bond gives him a glimpse of something he had long thought beyond his reach - a reason to care, to hope, and perhaps to live differently.

But fate has other plans. Drawn into Bangkok’s cartel war, Shivam is forced back into the darkness he had left behind. Amid violence, betrayal and an unexpected chance in love, he finds himself responsible for something beyond himself. As the lives of those he has come to care for become entwined with his own, Shivam must confront the choices that brought him here - and decide what he is willing to fight for.

The actor was expected to attend an event for GB Realty on 8 October at Taj Lands End in Bandra, Mumbai. Reports now suggest that the event has been postponed and will be rescheduled.

Nana Patekar messaged friend at 2:30 AM saying he was unwell, reveals doctor; adds actor was “brought dead” to hospital

Veteran actor Nana Patekar passed away on Thursday morning after suffering a cardiac arrest at his residence. Dr. Shekhar Salkar, Chief of the Oncology Department at Manipal Hospital, has now shared details of the actor’s final hours, revealing that the actor was brought to the hospital in an unresponsive state and could not be revived despite prolonged resuscitation efforts.

Speaking to ANI, Dr. Salkar said, “Nana Patekar was brought dead to the hospital. He was declared dead by 5:30 am. We had tried our best to save him, but he was brought dead. Cardiac massage was given for almost 45 minutes to an hour, but he just could not be saved.” Nana Patekar had messaged friend around 2:30 AM According to Dr. Salkar, Nana Patekar had reportedly messaged a friend around 2:30 AM saying that he was not feeling well. However, as it was nighttime, the friend did not see the message immediately.

The friend later called Nana and went to his residence at around 4 AM. By then, the actor was reportedly sweating and his condition was deteriorating.

“As per what we recalled, at around 2:30, he sent a message to his friend that he was not feeling well. But as it was nighttime, his friend could not see the message. So he just called him. He went to his house at around 4 o'clock. By that time, he was sweating and all,” Dr. Salkar told ANI.

The people present at the residence then began taking primary measures before arranging medical assistance. Dr. Salkar said Nana was gradually becoming unconscious, following which his caretaker was sent to the hospital to seek help. Emergency team attempted resuscitation Dr. Salkar said the hospital’s emergency response team went to Nana Patekar’s residence and began cardiac massage as he was completely unresponsive.

“He was slowly becoming unconscious. So they sent his caretaker to the hospital. He took our ambulance. When our ER team went there, they started cardiac massage because he was totally unresponsive,” he said.

The actor was subsequently shifted to Manipal Hospital at around 4:20 or 4:30 AM. Doctors continued their efforts to revive him, but he could not be saved.

“We also tried our best, but he was brought dead,” Dr. Salkar said. Body taken for post-mortem Following Nana Patekar’s death, a police case was filed as the matter falls under a medico-legal case (MLC). Dr. Salkar also confirmed that the actor’s body has been taken to Goa Medical College for a post-mortem examination.

“Then we had to file a police case because there's an MLC (medico-legal case). The body has now been taken to the Goa Medical College for post-mortem,” he said.

According to the doctor, Nana’s family members were not present at the time. His friends and a caretaker were with him.

“His family was not there. His friends were there with him and a caretaker,” Dr. Salkar added.

Nana Patekar was 75. He began his film career with Gaman in 1978 and went on to establish himself as one of Indian cinema’s most acclaimed actors, with notable performances in Salaam Bombay!, Parinda, Prahaar, Welcome, Ab Tak Chhappan, Natsamrat and Housefull 5.
