Anand who never told the media how much it cost him to build the house said that he wanted it to be the talk of the town and different from many others out there, Indian Today.

Many love the house

The building’s dome is 29ft high with large towers. The couple who have two children in their 20s was only able to move into it earlier this year.

Since they moved in, tourists have been swarming around the house to take pictures. About-to-weds also come to get their pre-wedding photoshoots done.

It should be noted that the original Taj Mahal in Uttar Pradesh was built by Mughal emperor, Shah Jahan, as a tomb for his wife who died in childbirth. The original Taj sits on a 42-acre land amid other historic buildings.
