imageKARACHI: The ancestral home of legendary family of bollywood which lies in Peshawar, Pakistan is about to collapse due to depressing state of building.

According to media reports, “The air inside their old (Kapoor) haveli is still, the gloom in the empty rooms is like time mourning its own passage, a surrender to dust, to dampness and to death. It is the indifference of a terminal patient to a visitor who brings no hope but stands by the bed”.

The Kapoors lived in Dhakki near famous Qissa khwani bazaar in Peshawar, Pakistan before partition.

“Carefully as rubble falls from the roof, wary of breaking a mold-infested floorboard and go down to the dark basement where the building may collapse on itself one day if not saved soon. It will add to the debris under Dhakki, the old city neighbourhood built over a mound of rubble beneath which lie many lost civilisations,” local media reported on the condition of Kapoor’s ancestral home.
