The special feature of this housing scheme will be that the main gate will be named after Saraswati Bai Phalke, wife of Dadasaheb Phalke. Thousands of cinema workers from Mumbai reached Shelu to see the first glimpse of these RERA registered houses.

Builder Ankur Padhye says  it was his father’s dream to provide houses for cinema workers, in which the efforts of FWICE, Amarjit Singh, former labor commissioner Sawant Saheb were also very important. Ankur Padhye says that earlier his father had provided houses for beedi workers in Solapur for just Rs 60,000.

The first phase of this housing scheme will be completed in one and a half years. These houses with 320 65 square feet carpet area will be earthquake resistant.
