Bangalore, Jan 7 (IANS) NRI entrepreneur B.R. Shetty may have acquired two floors in the world's tallest building, the Burj Khalifa, after shelling out a stupendous Rs.100 crore-plus -- but he doesn't know what to do with them!
According to Shetty's family members, the founder partner, managing director & CEO of Abu Dhabi-based New Medical Centre, has not yet decided on how to utilise the massive space on the 100th and 141st floors in the 200-storey Burj, which was inaugurated Jan 4.
"He has no plans to permanently shift residence to Burj. Probably, he will keep it for guests and stay there whenever he goes to Dubai," they told IANS on phone from Abu Dhabi.
The 100th floor is meant for residence and the 141st for office.
Shetty, who hails from Mangalore in Karnataka, has been living in Abu Dhabi for the last 36 years.
The New Medical Centre is a diversified business conglomerate with interests ranging from financial services to trading in pharmaceuticals; FMCG brands; scientific, laboratory, education and medical supplies; foodstuff; retail pharmacies; gold and diamond jewellery; advertising; hospitality; real estate; information technology; engineering projects and services.
