Isnt that btarun house? :toast:

[Black Panther]

Wow. :eek:

Pity the 'entertainment room' appears to consist of only a cinema?

I'd make major changes to that room if that was my house... :D
Technically I'd do away with nearly all the stuff except the bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchen, gym and ballroom (which is nice to impress), do away with like 20 stories and spend the money on something like this (http://gizmodo.com/gadgets/home-entertainment/sharp-rolls-out-gigantic-108inch-lcd-226761.php) with a matching monster rig to power it up... for... Crysis... :D

Throughout history, the very rich have built themselves castles.
This is just a modern version of that concept.
