Why Mulshi Attracts Investors
Located about an hour from Pune and within easy reach of Mumbai, Mulshi has emerged as one of Maharashtra’s most sought-after destinations for high-value land acquisitions.
Nestled amidst the Sahyadri hills and centred around the scenic Mulshi Lake, the region offers a rare combination of natural beauty, accessibility and development potential.
Large land parcels in Mulshi and the neighbouring Maval taluka have become particularly attractive because they can accommodate private estates, holiday homes, boutique resorts and hospitality projects.
The region benefits from excellent road connectivity through the Mumbai-Pune Expressway and the old National Highway, while its rolling hills, forests and numerous small dams have further enhanced its appeal among affluent buyers seeking lifestyle investments.
Celebrities Turn to Land Banks
Ranbir is not the only celebrity who is building a land portfolio.
Kartik Aaryan recently purchased a 2,000 sq ft plot worth around Rs 2 crore (Rs 20 million) at Chateau de Alibaug, a plotted development by The House of Abhinandan Lodha in the coastal town situated 100 km from Mumbai.
Kriti Sanon also acquired a premium 2,000 sq ft plot in Alibaug for the same price.
Panvel has also emerged as an investment hotspot. In October 2025, Sonu Sood purchased land worth Rs 1.05 crore (Rs 10.5 million) in the region.
Shah Rukh Khan’s daughter Suhana Khan acquired agricultural land in Thal village near Alibaug for Rs 9.5 crore (Rs 95 million) in February 2024.
